once i was at tswassen beach i heard the horn i was confused because i only heard old horn after some research i realized queen of new west had a new horn
They did mess with the pull cord when they installed the new horns, it used to split into 2 but now it splits into 3. Maybe that has something to do with it.
@@ollieboy4817 Shouldn't it have a softer start with the volume increasing as the cord is pulled down lower? With the old horns, if the cord was pulled down very slowly, the tones would gradually come in and increase in volume. Now, it seems more mechanical? Also, couldn't they install a major-sounding horn instead of a more irritating diminished chord?

It is similar to the Celebration, Inspiration, Renaissance and Expedition
Sounds like the coastal’s airchimes… but pullcord!?
Why aren't the tones gradual? It's more on/off than what a pull cord should sound like..

My guess is they made the pull cord activate newer electronic solenoid valves instead of manually opening the valve everytime
It sounds louder up close
