at 2:32 in the video you can still hear the horn of that long train W0W

There are 3 more grade crossings within about a half mile of this one. That horn you hear is when this train is approaching one of them.

Whoever thinks horns are gay suck. there isnt anything better than hearing a train horn on a summer night. its the most beautiful sound in the world.

they make the horns quieter for all the bed wetters who dont like being woke up in the middle of the night and find out they've pissed themselves XD

seriously tho. theyre loud and proud sounding for a reason. to tell everyone around that if you get in front of it, it WILL kick your ass.

fuck you the horn is telling stupid peeps that the train is coming and to stop before the crossing which some STUPID IDIOTS TRY TO BEAT IT WHEN IT'S GO 70 MPH AND THE CAR/TRUCK IS GOING 6 MPH!

although we could play technicalities right?...I heard they de-rated the AC60's to a measly 4400 engines since the German ones were cracking because of too much h.p....I missing hearing the old AC60's
