I just love the F40's Bob! I still have all the clips on that video you gave our dad along time ago! I play it every once and a while to look back on the F40's!

Sounds like the horn was plugged up. These were the waning days of the F40's on this train; they ran until 1997 for awhile after the P42's began experiencing issues with snow intake.
-
1:01 it sounds like the K5LA is crying almost because of the echo you hear...
-
@bountyhunter2341 There are no more F40PH's active on Amtrak. The ones you see running around now are converted to NPCU's, engineless Non Powered Control Units that are used as cab/baggage cars.

@DJGENEX71 , they waste to much gas , cost to much to maintain they had lots of problems , werent eco - friendly and their height is a problem , so they made the P42s so that it has more power , generates less fuel , smaller height and is faster and lighter than a F40ph , thats why their isnt so many F40s like they had before , all the F-40s you see today that amtrak uses are diffrent because they upgraded them so that they arent as dirty as the old F40s they had .

wow that footage looks like it was made 1 year ago even though f40phs don't run on empire builder anymore
-
@Michaellovestrains: it sounds like a fouled k5la. All F40's either had a k5la or p5.

What kind of horn is that? I've never heard it?

Great Doppler you stood in just the right spot.

Those F-40's were and still are Awesome! IDK why Amtrak quit running them in favor of the GE stuff! EMD needs to make a comeback or something with some new passenger engines! Fantastic video!
