Reminds me of the days when CP SD40-2's stilled ruled the Rockies. Nice echo, and well tuned K3H. I ran CN SD40u 6010 the other night, and it still has the K3H tuned like yours, well done!
great K3...quick question.i have a K3Hor K3HA not really sure...it has the 1 2 4 bells...the 4 bell doesnt have a the A on it...and i know its not a K3HA because a K3H and a K3HA sound very different..what horn do i really have....1 2 4 bells...please respond
I would be interested in knowing what compressor buddy was running? That looked like a 60 gallon tank in the back he must of had a compressor running of the crank pulley in order to supply that volume.
That horn reminds me of when I went railfanning in Canada at Bayview Junction. It was a quiet zone, but some of the trains blared their horns for us. There were no echoes like this, though.
I hear that horn on cn up cp and sometimes bnsf

NBEC/CFMG (Ex CN SD40) had this kind of Airchime too I think. Some had Nathan K3L, but most of their units (SD40) had Nathan K3H.

This type of horn is very typical for CN and CP rail....... Nathan K3H is used on many of those engines
