Up in Northern Michigan north of Grayling for the annual cousin's weekend (the guys only, need I say more?!) with my static rig. On it are two horns I rebuilt: Nathan Airchime K5L with bell numbers - , 2, 3, 4, 5. The large number 1 bell is not numbered. Some say it's a K5L, some say it's a K5LA. Sounds pretty good either way...you be the judge. The other is a Prime 920 with bells P50195, P50194, P40254; the same sounding bells as a Leslie Supertyfon S-3L: bells 25, 31 & 44. Tank is 80 gallons w/ 125 psi, horns are controlled by 2 separate Graham White 2 stage valves and air lines are 3/4 inch & regulated at 75 psi. Lanyards control the valves right off the tank.
First horn blow is about 3/4 mile away. Great echo and doppler effect! Note the typical Prime/Leslie "squeal" later in the video. Doesn't do that if the valve is opened quickly.

Thanks for the comment! I can't believe it's been over 10 years since I shot this video (my cousin, actually...I was driving). I'm getting ready to install a Canadian tuned K5HLA on the rig soon. Time to do another run by!

If you wanna hear a K5LA on a train, I would recommend Amtrak (passenger service throughout most of the country) and CSX (a Class 1 railroad east of the Mississippi River), since they have a lot of K5LA's. (Beware, CSX's K5LA's are VERY loud.)

I've always wondered about this particular horn. It's nearly identical to a standard K5LAR24, but there's something different about it. Amtrak frequently uses these on their Empire Service trains, and I've heard it on a few CSX GP40s and 38s. There's gotta be some special name for it or something!

The lines ARE 1/2". Anyone serious in the hobby knows that is what you use. The feeds to the valves are 3/4". If I ever think of it and get a chance, I'll put some closeup pictures on my flickr site and put a link here. BTW I've taken the Prime off for now and mounted an RS-5T in its place. Haven't done a road run yet, but stay tuned...
