This video nearly brought a tear to my eye.
Those were the days. before quiet zones, before LEDs, before E-bells, and most of all, before stupid out-of-tune K horns everywhere.

@cbehr91 type of motor doesn't make it a dash 2, the type of electrical system does.

@lt1caprice57l My two crossings on the NS Lehigh Line, where I live near, got the quiet zones. I remember as a little boy my grandfather took me down to the crossing I live a couple blocks away from. I used to love the blue. When I was three years old, Conrail went bye-bye. Things started to change. Crossing gates were replaced to the stupid Safetran electronic bells instead of the old mechanical bells. What a shame.

CSX is supposedly removing and scrapping their existing RS5T horns because they are 'too loud'. Sad.

Big Blue at it's best. This is why I'm proud to own an S-3L

Sweet sounding! WSOR has a couple of locomotives armed with nice RS3LRs, but Conrail Leslies just always seem to sound better than anybody else's.

I believe you; they had some SD40-2s from KCS who used S-5Ts extensively on their second generation diesels.

A Faboulous RS3L! And a Nice looking Pair of Conrails! They are unpatched in this video. Or is it a subtile patch that NS is starting to use? Nonetheless an AWESOME Horn & Engine Pair

This video is ancient. It was shot well before the split. Those motors aren't even around anymore, they're not Dash-2s.

Oh, interesting and what were they. And I nver said they were dash-2's

7680 is a GP38 & 8140 is a GP38-2 . Since the first motor wasn't a dash-2 it wasn't kept much after 2000.
