Nobody really mentioned how good the K3's sound. I really like the K3LA and the K3L with the K3L as my 2nd favorite horn in the video with the last K5LA being my #1 favorite. Train horns = music to my ears
I don't know squat about train horns, but that was just awesome! Recording the horns on a moving vehicle really "sets the tone" for the horns. I loved the Doppler effect! Great job!
I put a Union Pacific 46115 horn in my Tacoma and oh man do I love it. People (mostly) Truckers in the fast lane going to slow get the full 5 gallon blast.
It’s so weird because when the car is far away, you hear the low pitched version from the Doppler effect. But at the same time, it’s echoing what the horn actually sounds like without the Doppler.
All those horns sounded great, especially that old cast P5! P.S. That first horn was actually a K3HA. You can tell by the raised "neck" on the bottom of the manifold.
It's what ah needs fo sure! Enjoyed, thanks for post. Going to come back to your site, cable my tablet to my sampler, and download me some train horns I can tune as an instrument and play it! Also great for answering machines for telemarketers!!!
Had a set of nathans on an ol, single axle dump trk back in the mid 90s 1inch line and 10 gal surge thank just to feed em . it def, got peoples attention.
Absolutely love the sound of these horns, but I wish the sound wasn't so destroyed by how loud each horn is, lol! I'm trying to find solid non-doppler examples of a K5LA for a game that's being developed, and it seems like they've been fishing for examples from trains on the roll. So, I've come to the land of horn enthusiasts and I must say, I'm quite entertained.
The sound they make when they drive by is the best
Good old Ralph Doppler invented that technique. But he had a reputation for blowing his own horn.
AGREED!! The wind makes the horns sound higher pitched at high speeds
IKR!
AGREED!!!!
Gotta love the Doppler Effect
1. Is the loudest.
2. I enjoyed hearing it.
3. Sounds good
1,2,3
But it looks like shit.😕
@@woodie6408 lmaoo bhaahahah😁😂😂😂😂
1:03 yass Amtrak horn (for the P42's)
The P42s had a Narrow Font K5LA but some of them had a K5L and a K5HA and a K5H.
I feel like the 4:10 K5LA is meant for P42s and the 1:03 K5LA is meant for F40PHs
That is Correct! Amtrak P42DCs, F40PHs, ALC-42s, and SC-44s use the Nathan K5LA Horn.
That K5LA 1997-1998 Eral sounds The Loudest out of All of them!!! I was like 😲 I know which one I'm getting for my truck now!!!
1:23 ps2 startup
2:36 sounds like air raid siren
When your son needs to wake up for school.
*Mom gently places horn next to his ear*
Mom: _This k5la should do._
*Blows horn*

0:38 great
Son: I heard something strange.
Father: What is it?
son: I'm sure you were at the crosswalk, and I thought a train was coming from the side.
Father: ?
That Doppler effect of the K5LA gave me chills!! The 1997-1998 era one that is!
Josh Leffers reminds me of the commuter railroad that rostered passenger capable GP40-2s which had a wide font K5LA on them. They sounded beautiful.
Stafford Northern Railroad they had the best sounding horns
Reminds me of BNSFs and their late SD70Ace Locomotives. Beautiful.

Ok enough playing around ~ time to go find a busy shopping mall ! ! ! (^_^) hehehe
Oh my god
No. That's not funny, nor a decent thing to do. These are good for collecting and showing off, not pranking/scaring innocent bystanders!
KITTY CAT
@@westtexasrailfan softy
West Texas Railfan ok boomer
I love when they go past by REALLY FAST
Viviana Carpena it’s that Doppler affect
1:03 when Amtrack starts a taxi company...

At first I thought the K3L was the metro north M series horns but they had a Leslie RS2M XD
5:13 THAT DOPPLER EFFECT FOR THE P5 THO
Use this on the dozy driver in the speed lane ...
Geoffrey Lee 😂😂😅👍👌👌👌👌 the emoji’s say it all
then get a fat ticket from cop sitting by the road 1/2 mile away.
I just checked these out to buy cant believe how expensive but ima get one 😂😂😀
The Leslie horns are usually my favs. But I will say, the P5 also takes the cake!
3:22 gotta love that BCOL horn
It’s funny how it sounds like it’s screaming at 1:22 and 1:42
I like how the Train K5LA horn sounds like Amtrak. Great video!
And the last shall be first. That Blue K5LA is something else. Laughs and laughs of delight. I think the soloist was taken in by the mystique too. :)
3:21 sounds like some of canadian horns
Jeez. If I had one of those horns I would probably get jumped because how loud it is 💀
I love everything about this video
With those Horns you’d always win when somebody is Honking at you xD
Thank you this is just what I need. I'm trying to decide what horns to install on my truck. I want all of them hehehehehe!
The K5LA is so satisfying it can make a grown man cry
But not us seagulls GET BACK IN THERE TEAR
SNORTS
A school bus should have this so I wont be always missing the bus
I have a K5LA in my garage, I used it and pulled the lever for it so slightly that it makes a squealing sound.
Great demonstration! The EPA would destroy me if I drove around doing this!
Fck EPA 😎😂😂😂😂
This is the best rail fanning ever
When your alarm is one of thos🎺 WAKE UP! 😧
the slow dude at 1:30 wondering "what the heck I keep hearing trains""lol
What make you think he’s mentally slow
Love the P5'S!

Absolutely beautiful.
The loudest one almost broke my speaker lol
The Nathan P5 is the best sounding one.
Agreed. Old and Mixed cast are my favorite.
I'd be having TOO MUCH FUN! 😂
This is VERY , Awesome dude .
SERIOUSLY ....... awesome,What a great idea buddy. U ROCKED.....😉😉
1:44 i like the sound
3:55 train horn used on big rigs
The K5LA reminds me when I see an Amtrak Cascades train at the beach and I hear the horn in the distance. Awesome video!
That makes sense as the K5LA is the horn of choice for amtrak.
It’s so weird because when the car is far away, you hear the low pitched version from the Doppler effect. But at the same time, it’s echoing what the horn actually sounds like without the Doppler.

P.S. That first horn was actually a K3HA. You can tell by the raised "neck" on the bottom of the manifold.
Railfan Gavin the p5 horn sound like came off of GE Amtrak E60
Jmream2 Jmream The E60s used the Nathan P01235.
OMG I was always wondering what the difference was between a K3L and a K3H, I guess I didn't notice the raised neck on the manifold...
I subscribed tu ur channel
that old cast P5 sounds good Real good
How many db's is the K5LA? The loudest one?
1:40 is the best horn
Now put a Honda Civic horn on an Amtrak
Xavier Ancarno is that an Amtrak train with a Honda Civic horn?
*LOL*
And Jr trains
You mean a 4Runner horn?
you have 69 likes
6:31 amazing
That was awesome! I was hoping for a SP P3 in there.
That is Too Funny TRAIN HORN on a Truck!
Great sounding horns
The fire trucks in my city have a K3LA horn. Some of them have the present K5LA.
The Nathen P-5 will always be my favorite!😎
1:40 Great filming!
Hey this would be perfect if ur running late for work and need to run red lights 😂
at about 1:52 you can hear a real train blowing its horn in the distance. Edit 1:56 I couldnt help but chuckle at this.
You can’t really beat the 5 😎👌🏻👍🏻
One of these would be great to have. Much needed here!
1:05 is best
Me when its USA's Birthday
1:13
When my Paul was a trucker he had a train horn on his semi
0:22 UP oil train please wait
The Last K5LA came off of the A end of Amtrak AEM-7 #905.
Or *toasters
That's my favorite horn in the video so far
The fire departments are beginning to add the LOCOMOTIVE air horns to the trucks.
That is fucking awesome . I need these so bad.
Nothing sounds better than the K5LA
I like the horn it’s so good because oh because the old cars are like like so awesome I can’t think of it I will think of it for the rest of the day
YEAH! Love em...they’re all unique.😍
That's ridiculous! I love it!
1:01 my favorite horn
97-98 K5LA sounds like the PS2 opening sound.
Love love love it Spencer!!! Great job...away sounds...PERFECT!!!
The echoing of these horns was just great.
That last bit of close ups on the horns tricked me at least 3 times. It would be kinda quiet then FULL BLAST and I shouldn’t have worn earbuds
I like the 2nd horns...👍🏾👍🏾
Neat video - also a good demonstration of Doppler shift.
The Doppler Effect is the best❤
It's what ah needs fo sure! Enjoyed, thanks for post. Going to come back to your site, cable my tablet to my sampler, and download me some train horns I can tune as an instrument and play it! Also great for answering machines for telemarketers!!!
Yes! I once held the phone up to a speaker playing this P5, but I hung up before anything else happened, sadly.
I luv K5LLA’s Nathen K5LA’s, and Nathen P5’s
An amazing video! As a railfan, it’s very fun to see a video with such an unique concept, especially with the several different train horns used.
Plzzzz tell me how you got the red K5LA at 1:01. Oh boy that sounds like a beauty
Noodle Train found There on eBay and on this site called HornBlasters
Hornblasters but they are very expensive. I got the conductors special 232 instead.
TheDude HornBlasters is worth it though I got the Conductors special 228
The horn blasters one you don’t know what gen it is. Some are even raised letter.
0:11 my favorite horn
Stealth mode, gone before they even hear you coming.
I bet the neighbors love you
Music to my life
Had a set of nathans on an ol, single axle dump trk back in the mid 90s 1inch line and 10 gal surge thank just to feed em . it def, got peoples attention.
Old school P5
Sounds like a actual train when it passes
