A blast from the past...who would of thought that those 60mac's started the AC traction revolution,and that many of those santa fe locos were on borrowed time,thanks to the BN-SF merger of the mid 90's...great footage

Looking at photos of the ATSF GP20's it appears that they had S3L/RS3L's, which would sound exactly like the horn on the B40-8W in this video.

What was the horn on the Santa Fe had on their GP20's?! I've heard that they sound very unique and I've never actualy head one. Can someone please tell me. :-)

He didn't say a word about anything being "rare" in the description. This stuff was downright common to Mark when he shot it, he saw it every day. He knows exactly what I meant when I made the comment. Calm down kid.
