Because it has to snake though several streets of our neighborhood, there is audible horn blowing for about 5~8 minutes depending on the the length & speed of train.

Just recently. By the way do you know if other trains run through here - other than Amtrak?? Wait. I find myself arguing with a bunch of train hobby people!

I imagine this engineer does not give a crap about quiet zones because he doesn't want to hit someone. Hitting a person is a railroad engineer's nightmare and can have long-lasting effects on an engineer's mental health and wellbeing. Better a few seconds of noise than somebody going splat on the front of a train.

Don't buy next to transportation infrastructure (highways, railroad, ship yards/ports, and airports) if you're sensitive to the sound. If it were such a huge problem, then the city council would've approached Amtrak by now. Did I mention someone was killed 5 years ago in Encinitas? The conductor saw her running towards the train and couldn't stop it in time. This man says it's been going on for several years now, so how do we know it's not because of this incident or others like it that's causing the constant train blowing??

Looks like there are two grade crossings before the station, E street and D street, and the Amtrak is running at speed at the time. So engineer is likely following the rules. Be rest assured if the train hit someone or something, there would be every state and federal investigation in the book done on the engineer, every bit of video footage used to be sure the horn sounded long enough, and every reason imaginable used to find them at fault.

I get the complaint but it isn't the engineer's fault for constantly blowing the horn. It's literally his (and every engineer's) job to blow the horn sequence at every crossing. There's 2 crossings (3 if you count the ped x-ing). So it's obvious that you should hear the horn blowing for about 30-60 seconds. As a train enthusiast, ofc i love hearing horns. If you have a problem with train horns, then move out. Move to a place with a no horn zone like chicago, if u still love trains. More questions to ask: What did you expect? Why did you even move there in the first place? Disagree with me if you want, idc. This is what i think, my opinion, and should go with anyone who wants to live in noisy places like this.

What most railfans don't realize is that this is how quiet zones get established. One engineer who, let's face facts, is overdoing the horn a bit, is going to get this town to force a quiet zone for all the other rulebook-abiding engineers. Now instead of the lonesome sound of the whistle in the distance, and plenty of warning of an approaching train, you're relying on nothing but lights and bells and maybe one of those awful crossing-gate horn loudspeakers. Don't get me wrong, I abhor quiet zones, but all it takes is something like this and that's what you get.

So, if its for safety im ok with it. The horror of it for me was mistakenly being told it was an accident. The coroner was unaware i didn't know it was suicide. Watching the video was how i had to find out. People griping are only thinking of themselves & not that there might be a good reason for the horn pattern.

there's a certain rule and pattern that drivers are supposed to use. a quick long long short long at crossings, 1 short horn before stopping at a station, and 2 short horns when leaving. The dude said he has no other problem with trains except that one train engineer who plays patty cake with the horn throttle. Really you should blow horns when passing a station only if there are people near by (just heard the end of the video, exactly what they said)

First if you don't like train noises maybe don't live near train tracks and second the whole "no horn should last more than 20 secs" is completely false, if you take the time to actually read the rule it states no more than 15 to 20 secs in advance of all crossings, finally the horn sequence is 2 long 1 short and 1 long, that last horn must be held until the locomotive fully passes the crossing and if there are multiple crossings close and back to back guess what the engineer has to do? he has to hold the horn all the way until he passes the crossings/station.
