This is a Westinghouse E2B1 sound alike horn that I put together. I think it still needs some tweeking to get the proper sound but this was my first test with all the bells together. I used a Westinghouse E2 along with two K1L two piece bells. The tuning right now is 156hz (E flat) 207hz (G sharp) and 255hz (C flat). I think a solid C note from the one K1L might sound a little more melodious.

  • Thanks. Since this video I did a little tweaking and adjusting the balance of the horns and I have it blowing with a dominate E2 sound now and a little bit lighter on the K1L horns. I think it has a much better sound now. I will shoot another video of them now that I have adjusted them soon.

  • It's a cast iron locomotive bell that I bought off ebay. It runs on air pressure also to activate the bell clapper. It adds nicely to the locomotive sound when blowing the horns.
