Its not often you seem to get friendly engineers like that. That engineer definitely loves his job!

@stephankoenig5481 Жыл бұрын

He is a nice guy. Normally you only hear horns at the crossing.

@MrBnsftrain Жыл бұрын

I'm glad the engineer sounded the horns for you! More of the GE/Wabtec teast drivers need to do that, especially if they're testing a unit with unique horns like the ones sent to India

These engines make Jetsons car noises, and the horn gives me Indian Railways vibes by the sound

Nice catch! Very interesting looking units

Not sure why they decided to go for a “split horn” setup (K1L13 towards the front and a K24 at the rear) but it’s rather unique. Also the first time I’ve seen GE/Wabtec use an Ekyrail e-bell as opposed to the more typical Graham-Whites they use. Great video though!

So I assume that the GEVOs were in dynamic to simulate a heavy train, and were also used to test the dynamic braking power of the SD23's when pulling them back?

The more I listen to them, the more I feel like I'm overseas with the way they sound.

I love a friendly engineer, but was a bit disappointed that I couldn`t hear the diesel engines in the CSX units because of the horn blowing. Definitely looking forward to more videos!
