[@irt_subway]

M9 was the best

[@Linuntuthetechguy1212]

M7 looks like the R211

[@UnionCountyPhotography]

Which horn name?

[@TheChachLINY]

M3: Leslie S2M. M9: Nathan K2H Restricted. M7: Leslie RS2M Restricted.

[@stampycatfan01lol]

@@TheChachLINY I’m not completely sure if that’s what the M9’s have; chances are that they may have Leslie RS2M’s as well, especially since Leslie is, surprisingly, still in business and still catalog the RS series of horns.

[@tntplumbing24]

M9 and M3 to Penn Station M7 to Ronkonkoma

[@Spaceshotx7]

How come Amtrak, and most commuter railroads, and many freight railroads seem to use the Nathan K5LA or variants of them? Why aren't the Lesslie horns that popular? Also, how come it seems like the Metro North Railroad, Long Island Railroad, and SEPTA Regional Rail EMUs are the only trains that don't have bells on them, and are still in Complient with the FRA?

[@SimbaC2007]

What about the C-3?

[@lennysvideoz]

Hey, is the crossing right by the station? If so, how far would it be walking distance?
