Train Horns! Part 3 - Nathan K5LLA
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 08. 2024
- Train horns! is a video series that listens to different types of air horns used on North American locomotives at railroad crossings.
Part 3 features the Nathan Airchime K5LLA, which is incredibly loud. The standard K5LLA uses the 1L, 1, 2, 3A and 4A bells and is the horn of choice on new EMD locomotives, such as the SD70M-2 and SD70ACe, while the K5HL is for GE's, becoming one of the most common train horns in the country.
Heritage Units are exluded from this video as all 20 are featured in there own video here: • Norfolk Southern's 20 ...

Since 2004, like any other horn, some have appeared on other locomotives models; we'll see several examples in this video. Some modified versions of this horn exist, particularly on the MEC 3400's or GO Transit, often referred to as K5LL or K5LLB depending on the bell utilization.
The K5LLA, along with the K5HL, use a 1L bell that came onto the market in 2004 as a response to a federal mandate that established a minimum and maximum decibel rating, which ultimately led railroads, most notably CSX, to rid older horns off of their locomotives, particularly Leslie 3 and 5 chime horns. In reality, the K5LLA and K5HL are often much louder than the Leslie horns. Sound-dampening techniques include turning several bells or the entire horn backwards. In any case, the most typical K5LLA arrangement involves turning only the 1L bell backwards.

Thanks for watching!
10:47 Probably one of the best Shave and A Haircuts I've ever heard.
Chicagoland Railfan my new ringtone
God, I love it when they do that.
I do my shave and haircuts different than that
It was especially good with that echo ☺️

*Hears K5LLA approaching*
“ITS A HERITAGE UNIT”
*SD70M-2 goes by instead*
John Fedlam Rip
Some of the heritage units have really throaty, deep K5LLA's, you usually know when the CNJ or PC are coming because they are definitely among some of the deepest horns.
Central Penn Rail Productions I got scared by a heritage earlier this morning
I think it was cnj I think
All I saw was blue and orange
Most relatable thing I heard
Rachel Lalu idk 😐
I forgot the day I saw it?
10:46 perfect SAAHC
1:07 That horn is pretty good from a far distance!
That k5lla horn is getting the 4a kinda killed
6:34 It actually looks like it got lifted off the rails by the road!
Bouncy
They should NOT be going that fast over it.
@Dan C. If there’s THAT big of a bump, no they should NOT be going that fast over it period. And the cars don’t have as good of suspension as the locomotives.
NS fix your track!
@Dan C. “trust me it’s fine” famous last words before a derailment. You wouldn’t be a very good track inspector
The reason why the K5LLA at 0:04 is sounding different because in the cold time, they always get affected by it
Same with The K5HL, 1174 & 9672
What generation is that
@@mr.bobrischew685 3rd Generation
10:46 is the best. SAAHC with a beautiful K5LLA, not to mention a Primer Cab GEVO trailing.
That is a AC44C6M
I like that one at 10:36. I noisest that at 10:47 it does a shave and a haircut!
I agree, I know the engineer on that train, and well, he always gives me horn lol
Gametrain Productions NS 1052? I caught it before and I heard it from a mile away
the second engine is a dc to ac locomotive
Awesome. Favorite type of horn right there. I’m not sure what gen it is, but my favorite K5LLA is the really deep sounding ones.
The first gen I assume? Check out my videos of it to confirm.
3rd Gen. Same here.
According to Nathan Airchime, “generations” aren’t a thing. Officially, they are known as “Raised Letter K5LLAs” because of the font on the back caps of the horn.
Nathan Airchime horns don't have generations. The older models are can be referred to as an Airchime K5LLA, or identified by their manufacturer tag, like "Round Tag" K5LLA. The sharper sounding horns are known as "Raised Letter" (due to the literal raised letters on the backcaps of the horn) or "Micro Precision" K5LLA.
I like the SD70ACe horn if it’s a K5LLA
I back watching my favorite train horn video this video has all of the 3rd Gen K5lla's which is my absolute favorite train horn!!!!
What an awesome compilation! The shot beginning at 1:01 is truly incredible; that is about the perfect sound of a modern freight train to me, and the scene and weather are just amazing. You really do get some excellent videos in PA. Thank you for posting!
Incredible shots of K5LLA action!
Tbh I definitely think 5:36 Sounds the best! Love that Music!
That made me pause when the horn blew cuz I live next to a train track
Sounds like the Roblox Chillicothe sub thundercab horn
6:36 I've never seen and heard an Norfolk southern sd60i with an Nathan k5lla before
Csx_Trains10 I’ve never seen a SD60i bouncing like this too !
Same bro
FACTS I WAS SCRATCHING MY HEAD LIKE WHAT THE HECK THAT DON T BELONG THERE A K5LA DOES
The rails made the train bounce
You mean SD60M
Those K5LLAs are best horn and I surprised that GP38-2 3048 Had a K5LLA just like Long Island Rail Road had but it’s been replaced with RS3L
Thanks again for the great videos you produce!
And thank you for watching!
That horn at 1:01 is my favorite. Never ceases to give me goosebumps. Great video

Nice compilation! Loving that LOUD K5LLA!
K5LLA, my favorite horn. I loved this video.
Just a note, at 5:02, that is not a K5LLB. A K5LLB would typically have the 1L, 1, 2, 3B and 4 bells. It has to have a 3B to be classified as an LLB. K5LLBs are exactly the same as K5HLBs just on a low manifold
.....I like the full doppler effect when they sound as they go by....awesome
10:45 that was awesome
Pure awesomeness
1:00 There's a Norfolk Southern train running on a snow day 🌨🌨🌨🌨
Great Catch
What a great Video, thank you
Thank you for watching!
10:46 best horn show ever
That’s a shave and a haircut.
Its like if the K5LLA was made for the SD-70ACe.
No other engine can blast it like the ace´s.
except for the de30ac or the dm30ac
Excellent 👍👍
Cool sounding horns! 👍🙂
Those are my favorite trains horns! Well, one of them. They are mostly on EMD SD70ACes or sd70ace-p4s. Nice video
There is virtually no difference between regular ACEs and P4s, other than two less traction motors. There’s no way to tell the difference visually
@@midwestsirens I know they look the same.... but they are still my favorite soooo.....
@@Unknown_Bread Ok then lol but there’s barely any difference between them
Top hat trailing at 3:22 Nice catch!
First time I've seen someone call a narrow nose Dash 9 a top hat! At first I thought you were talking about the low-mounted number boards on 8366
Yeah! The bonus was an NS mixed freight with a Pan Am (MEC) SD40-2 in the lead within a K5LLB horn. Awesome Catches of lead unit Pan Am #3400. :)
Thanks, I am glad I woke up early and drove out of my way for it because they no longer run the MEC units south of Binghamton NY
5:29 funny seeing SDPX hoppers so far from home!
I've never heard a K5LLA so fouled that it sounded like an M3. Nice job pan am
7:05 sweet music to my ears
Awesome video!!
Pan Am Railways went with the K5LLB on their 3400 series SD40-2’s mainly because only one bell (either the 1L or the 1 bell) is facing forward while the 1, 2, 3, and 5 bells are facing backwards to reduce the noise to meet regulations.
If their configuration was that of an ACe with 3 bells facing forward and 2 facing backwards then they would sound a lot more like SD70ACe’s as a result.
The UP and NS heirtege units use these horns!
I think at 1:54 is the best sounding horn I ever heard
That beast
Love the doppler effect.
*Awesome*
not kidding this is my 2 year olds favorite video, he points at my laptop and says choo choo
That's awesome!
@@CentralPennRailProductions yea now my laptop is a choochoo and my wife is angry she is hearing back to back train horns before work at 630am but thanks for the upload!
@@personalracingday4563 lol
@@personalracingday4563 hows how doing now
The trailing unit behind that 1052 which was the 4123 oddly enough has a K5LLA as well, but the 1L only one that faces the cab.
What a beautiful shot you got at 11:01
Yep, btw this was NS 65E
I know for sure, P5's are much better sounding than K5LLA's...of course, the video is always great!
I am probably losing hearing because of these horns! Thanks for watching and commenting.
denault3985 you hit your head the k5lla is a sound from the heavens such a beautiful sound I think the p5 squeals to much the k5lla is loud violent and very deep sounding which is nice
Nah, K5LLA’s are better than any P5 out there.
Nice video bro

Central Penn Rail Productions no problem!
Great video
Thank you!
Anytime
Central Penn Rail Productions but try getting hearing protection
I like this one 0:04
Wait… how can a D9 have an SD70ACe horn?
It happens sometimes when horns get swapped or go bad and they put a new one on as a replacement.
Central Penn Rail Productions ok now that makes sense. Thanks for the info. Take care.
A horse head 8800s series Dash 9 with a K5LLA? Dang!
I hear a *LOT* of K5LLA's here in Sacramento, CA; must be all those UP ES44 and SD70Ace units.

OH GOD OUR RAILROAD HAS BAD HORNS NOW...
@@RailfanAndy bruh what?
@@ns_guy5149 i hate the 1st gen k5lla
This is my favorite train horn my favorite is the 2nd generation k5lla
At 6:21 I hear a k5hl far away from Ns 6772 it’s probably an es44ac or an et44ac

What camera you use? I love it
It's a Sony FDR-AX100

The first clip is awesome, were did you shoot it at?
3:16 has three locomotives NS no longer has... great horns as well!
I hate that 1st gen k5lla
melvy garcia you have a horrible taste in air horns period 😂
Lol
Yea
Now the SD70M-2’s are gone
hope ya make a Union Pacific K3LA Compilations
Amazing. What camera do you use?
The one on 6772 sounds the best along with 1052. So does the one on 2591.
8:35 The best of the best from a horn down the way
10:45 Favorite part of the video
1:00 best K5LLA to me
How about 10:46
While I'm not a fan of this horn .... It's a great video ...
Youre not? Lol
Yeah I am not a big fan of the Newer K5LLA's myself.
Haha, well thanks for watching anyway!
@@CentralPennRailProductions The video was fantastic I just am not a fan of the newer "LLA" series
How dare you
My favorite is 3rd gen. Nice compilation
The last video clip, I’m very familiar with that line. If I’m not mistaken he just left fleetwood pa.
6:32 it's an original sound in sodor diesels woth american horns diesel 10 uses nathan K5LLA

Nice to see some panam
5:41
a horn of a game lol
epic horn
Imagine they add these on Amtrak.. or on metro north..
6:30 I thought it sounded like a k5hl 3rd gen ns 9650 had that once in the other video
NS#2734 (K5LLA) SD70M-2
NS#6772 (K5LLA) SD60I
That k5lla on the gp40-2 at 0:30 sounded like a dm30ac
K5LLA is king of the train horns!
RS5T is
MI, OH, and ON Railfan 2103 Oh no no no no no my friend! It most certainly is not!
Can agree with C Mac^
US&CA Railfan 2103 The Leslie RS5T May be the king of train horns due to its history but the Nathan K5LLA was designed to be louder.
Absolutely!
6:26 very ironic
How?
Rails of Alabama 2020 there’s an SD60 with a K5LLA, with two M-2s trailing.
@@wakecountyproductions lol
1:54 amazing
2:04 that is a K5HLA
@CSX 7010 yes it is. that is a Hybrid K5HLA
Congrats to 1168's horn at 5:41 for being in Ro-scale BNSF Chillicothe subdivision.
And Metra Racetrack
Ns 1168 sounds different early in the video in the Virginia line
Crossing Testing place too (old map)
May I use some of the audio for a video?
BNSF SD70ACes have K5LLAs, as well.

10:50 Dang what happened to that front end? Looks like either burnt or just replaced part that needs to be painted?
The AC44C6M wasn't done with the cab yet
They called it the ghostly cab
Since NS is storing all the SD70M-2's they should put the K5LLA's on those on the SD70ACes because the M-2's have the original K5LLA horns whilist the ACes seem to have a newer one that in my opinion doesn't sound quite as pleasing. 2734 and 2667 are the best ones in this whole video.
3rd gen in my opinion [ which is the newer Horns] are better, then older [1st Gen K5LLA]
