Original K5's returning to the DE/DM's

"Some have a pointy "tail" on the back."

The best horns IMHO, the Leslie "R" series SuperTyfons.

Totally.

Nathon aint got nothin on Leslie

Don't be dissing nathans. this is not a poll

Nathan is good but Leslie is better

How many chimes do M1/M3/M7's horns have? What are the rules for grade crossings (long-long-short-long) that are not in quiet zones? and passing stations?

M1s have Single Chimes, M7 have 2 Chimes. Bolth of which are Leslies

M3 has 2 chimes also

So there are actually quiet zones on the LIRR in certain spots?

M1's have Leslie #44 single trumpits

M3s just like M7s have Leslie RS2ms Leslie #44 and #30 trumpit.

Cabcars have Rs2m's also and the de/dms K5la and the canadian (K5l1a?)

The horns on the M1 are the worst horn's the railroad has now. but I could understand that since the M1's are in bad shape.

Leslie horns are VERY well know to clog up and get dirty VERY VERY easy, thats why alot of them sounds like crap, most where never cleaned. I tell ya, clean ones are LOUD and sounds VERY good. .
