Friggin squeal. If you catch a K5H on CSX, that's usually what they sound like now... I enjoy how the length between the button (valve) and the inlet to the mainifold allow for air to slowly disspate...so instead of "off-on" with the horn, it almost "brightens and dims" so to speak. Much nicer than "On-off"-Jeffrey
@GP30RDMT I like that too! Look at YouTube video CSX Loaded Vehicle Freight - Folkston, Georgia. The SD50 in this video has the sweetest horn that I have heard in a while.
An Arizona and California GP40-2 had or still has tht same horn..awsome horn!!

With the way that one bell is squealing; it sounds like an S5T until it passes you.
