Well, you take 4 bolts off at Sacramento, swap out crappy K5LA for M5, then tighten bolts back up and go for a spin.

The M-5 when approaching sounds like a K-5LA going away at speed. Harmony is the same, but in a lower key.

So the story behind this is that some, now FORMER, Amtrak Engineer who put the M5 on CDTX 2051 got fired for modifying a FRA fitted horn (K5LA) with a FRA rejected horn (M5). It sounded great but came with a price.

Bad? well that's subjective... to me anything that isn't a K5 sounds good. According to the comments I'm seeing, apparently the engineer put it on and got fired for some BS about the M5 not being FRA approved - despite sounding much nicer than the K5LAs you hear today.

Simple answer to that amazing guy getting fired: The FRA has really bad taste in horns. But if you think that's bad, Transport Canada is even worse! If you're a Passenger System in Canada, they FORCE you to use these absolutely ATROCIOUS horns!

I could see why it would be against a company policy to alter the equipment but I couldn’t see it being illegal. A horn is a horn, the job of a train is to be seen and heard, and that’s what it’s doing. He shouldn’t have been TERMINATED. Maybe written up I could see, but not fired
