- Today ANDREWAMTRAK and I went out into the woods again to fire off horns. After months of work on my often crappy sounding K5LA. She now finally sounds "normal" No over domination of bells. No dead bells. Enjoy the sounds.
Sounds like a f40ph going to heaven
THIS IS THE BEST K5LA I HAVE EVER HEARD!!!!!!!
That is probably one of the best sounding K5LAs I have ever heard.
Same.
Hauntingly beautiful!!
Yes, this really is the best K5LA on youtube... Jesus Christ in a taxi-cab... =o
We should try to sneak into Amtrak yards in the middle of the night and clean out the K5LAs thoroughly so that they'll all sound this good. I know that's easier said than done.
Alex Paumen I can't even tell you how much I agree with you! 😂
Wish we could clean cdtx 8312s K5LA its sounded horrendous for years now
I'm with y'all. It sure would be a nice gesture, with the added benefit of that nostalgic early K5LA sound as a reward for the hard cleaning work 😎🎺
Sneak into the yards and replace all the raised letter K5LAs with this beautiful K5LA!
She's sounds so beautiful 🥺
Fr it dose!
Great horns! This brings me back to the days when I was just starting out as a railfan in a way few other things could.
I can picture it now. Amtrak's National Limited running the PRR between Richmond, IN and Indianapolis; or even Amtrak's Cardinal on C&O's Miami Subdivision. Definitely like the sound, sir!
Sexiest horn I've ever heard besides the RS5T
I honestly want more of this! This is easily the best K5LA I’ve ever heard!
Beautiful horn!
0:41 has a great Doppler affect
Freakin' badass echoes!!! Best K5LA recording on CZcams!!!!!
WOW that is so Beautiful Sounding!!!!
Man that sounds MUCH better!
Reminds me of the Amtrak Carolinians I record for CZcams great horn
that thing sounds incredible!
Do you happen to know what unit it came off of or at least what type?
I don't think so. It's black, not blue or silver.
Alex Paumen If it's black, then it's almost certainly an F40PH K5LA.
Finally found the K5LA sound you used in one of your videos a while back lol.
great sound!
7 years later, this is still one of the best K5LAs around. Wish I still owned it...

@CoasterFan2105 Original owner did not know, but odds are heavy it was a F40PH. For the era that was all that Amtrak was getting.
Truly awesome!!!
To protect it from things from getting into it...
This horn belongs in Washington to get those amazing echos!
I like the newest gen k5's but it's good to hear old gen k5la's too.
makes you cry? okay, that's a bit obsessive.
Very nice sounding horns.
Did you have a Large Bore #5 on this one?
Beautiful!!! :D
@Hightrain12 Go ahead. Just give proper credit.
when you get it done, tell me so i can get it
1:05 - 2:07 is my favorite
How did you get ahold of the horns? Sounds great!
Is there an "A" stamped into the #3a bell, if not than its definatly an late 70's/early80's model
I think it's only a #3a if it has the A stamped into the side. Otherwise, it would be a #3, right?
Alex N No. There is no #3A bell with A stamped. This model is off of a P40DC.
Big bore?
Are you just using a graham white valve to the the horn to fire, or something else?
@Hightrain12 Would it sound correctly? With the Doppler effect and echoes?
What are the chances it is from an F40PH?
Or a P40DC?
hunter dawso P40DC. It was off of 25 before it got uprated. It used to be 808.
