Train Horns! Part 8 - Leslie RS5T "King of Train Horns"

Train horns! is a video series that listens to different types of air horns used on North American locomotives at railroad crossings. Part 8 concludes the series, featuring the Leslie RS5T dubbed "The King of Train Horns" although, many would probably argue that title belongs to the M5.

Norfolk Southern retired a lot of yard locomotives that had RS5T's, but many of those horns ended up on SD60E's that were rebuilt during the same time period, which we'll see in this video. A lot of horns ended up on short lines or in the hands of collectors. CSX, after all, literally threw out hundreds out these horns when fitting their fleet with Nathan K5LA's.
