- Due to computer issues, this video is up a month late. But this was dated back to July 9th 2011. This is shot at Fairhope, PA at the Fairhope Crossing. This was the last train we caught that day, and not only did the 2nd unit have a stuck horn on it, the lead unit was blowing the horn, so essentially, double the horn! Hope you enjoy something you don't see every day!
They should make a thriller movie out of this:
Trailer:
"Just when you thought that being a railroad worker was hard, you got...
THE HORN!"
(Intense Music)
THE HORN. Rated R. Coming soon to theaters and IMAX 3D!
Even after the last car passes by you can still hear that relentless horn blasting.
Beautiful Doppler Effect!
wow! if u listen carefully just after the last coal hopper passes the crossing, seconds before the vid ends, you can STILL hear the relentless horn continuously being heard. Like many others have said; poor crew whoever has to endure it; when they're shift ends, it'd be like, "i relieve you." "pardon?!?" lol
I hope that train went through a no-horn zone
Couldn't the conductor just walk back and close the valve to the horn?
But, the horn is to loud they probably dont wear headphones you can get your ears knocked out if you listen to much.
If he's going down the grade cumberland MD will be the quiet zone
@@wrrail then why don't they wear headphones Lol? Seen one before where the conductor was on the side of the locomotive with the compartment door open probably fixing it, while the train was going
Sorta gives it a suspenseful sounding sound track XD
sorry for really late reply but agreed. It would make a good intro for a death metal song
Trailing Engine: ILL SHOW YOU HOW I CAN BE HEARD TOO!
Leader: STFU BITCH
Trailing Engine: HOOOOOOOOONNNNKKKKKKKKK
Leader: dude it's not funny! IM THE LEADER HERE!! SHUT UP
Trailer: uhh leader... i cant turn it off....
Leader: OMFG. WHYD YOU START
lmao
😂
This comment just made us laugh 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Locomotives Are Having a Horn War Lol
You'd be able to hear that train coming from over 10 miles away! Lucky railfans!
After an hour...
Lead unit: WHY THE FUCK WON'T YOU SHUT UP?!
Trailing unit: I know right, so annoying...
Horn shuts off...
Lead unit: Finally! *Blows horn as a celebration* Uh-oh.
Trailing unit: Haha bitch! *Blows horn to mock lead engine* FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKk
Haha! You can even still hear the horn after it passes!
Also, the trailing unit was 794, not 974.
Kentucky Railway Productions I was getting ready to say because 974 would've had the new CSX brackets and it was brand new at the time
Why blow the lead engine horn haa!! Awesome catch!!!
Probably just cause they could - I'm sure they were aware of the other horn being stuck on, so they added some extra horn just for the lolz.
Haa ok cool! Well yes more horn haa I like
At least you had plenty of warning ⚠️ that it was coming
SO MUCH HORN! AHHH! Sweet vid, Jason.
There are some places where I think a continuous horn policy should be implemented. Mainly, what I call "The Gauntlet" on the G&U: Maple Ave to Grove St, also known to the locals as a walking path.
You know what, trains would be much safer if they used the horn like this. I think this is how all trains should be. Well, not really, but some places it would be VERY appropriate.
lol i thought the first engine had the stuck horn! but it was the dash 9
Sam M. dash 9? really? i hope you learned your mistake 6 years later
Lol Actually ES44AC-H
haa STICK IT QUIET ZONERS!!!! AAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
It prolly wasn't THAT bad for the crew considering they were in a comfort cab that prolly had good insulation.
i like how the engineer blows his horn like that narrow font k5hl isnt audible enough
and yes i know its standard crossing protocol
@trainsruleandroll Yeah it wasn't too bad. At first I thought there might have been trespassers, until I heard the crew on the radio saying something about the horn being stuck. Deff. something you don't see every day!
@thepuckstopper1 Yeah my computer was acting up and wouldn't let me upload to CZcams. Sorry it is up a month late.
not a chance to not here that coming!
wow that sounded beautiful
You'd hear that train coming from 10 miles away, lucky railfans.
Another great video man!
😂😂😂 Both of the horns got stuck
Ironic. Had this been a 2nd generation locomotive with the horns mounted on top of the cab, it would have been a simple matter to disconnect the air supply. But with the horns today mounted towards the center of the roof, access is much harder to gain. If the horn's air supply is a single pipe branching off of the primary compressor line, installing an easily accessible shut off valve might not be a bad idea for the maintenance dept to consider as it would be helpful in a case like this.
Great Video!
that was beautiful
thats what im always worried about. the horns gunna get stuck bill XD
Wow! That must have gotten annoying to the engineer. Cool video!
Bet the engineer's ears were ringing after the crew got it stopped.
Well the horn was ok, but I agree, I feel bad for the crew who had to endure it.
wow that is really uber annoying holy crap. I feel so bad for the crew that has to deal with that! YIKES
Man I feel sorry for that crew! That would get old!
Their ears would be ringing once they got it stopped.
Oh my god that poor crew...
I bet that was pissing off the engineer :-). Nice vid and catch.
What's even stranger is that the horn on the second unit is stuck ... so it must have somehow stuck by itself with nobody pressing the button. Like, WTF?
Also, under the floorboards in the cab, is a valve for the air supply to the horn. Just turn the damn thing off LOL, and tag it as inoperable.
Probably was at some yard or some crap.
They crew's ears must have been ringing after that one. Feel sorry for them.
I could stand it for a few minutes before id be climbing up to the roof and plugging lines
Nice catch !
Only a bell or two was stuck.
I find that hard to believe.
santoro2020 I hear 3
It only sounds like that because some bells face forward and some face backwards, so as it passes you'll hear some bells louder than others
All the bells were stuck
Horn broken, watch for headlight! LOL
Why would they not just cut the horn out on the second unit?
Ear plugs. A lot of the engines are quite loud so they may already be wearing them.
Joe Dohn Not at all.
Joe Dohn I don't know what you mean by squeaks.
Joe Dohn the cabs are not sound proof. You can hear the horn quite well on most of the engines. Some are a little quieter. Most engines are quite loud without the horn.
WTF!!!
Watch closely at 0:55 ... the ditch light flashing pauses momentarily. Why is that?
Benjamin Esposti it is a refresh in the lights. they do that so the lights get a break
All they need to do is shut the air supply off to it
It’s like a metrolink but a freight train instead
a horn show with themselves
@HeresOneForYa I'm thinking it was some sort of mechanical issue.
what did they do about the stuck horn on the second unit?
Just yank the wire, that would stop it!
@IIIIIRepoIIIII LOL
It isn't wrong, but we just don't do it.
Does the csx train crew notice that the horn is stack
They know it's stucked but they cant do anything about then only closing the valuve covers on the horn or let it just sit like that.
@IC1034 Thanks Lew!
