Massive Night Recordings of Nathan M5
Переглядів 10 тис.10 років тому
Andrew Shafer's 1952 M5 blown at night starting at a distance of 2 miles. A 200 CFM Air Compressor was used to achieve high air volume, its not very often you get to blow an M5 like this! The horn has all matching 1952 heads, spacers in the 3&4 bells to make it truly in tune. Its heritage is former Green Mountain.

After spending a good amount of time in getting the sound right, I think I got the sound I was looking for. The horn has Bronze tab backs which a year later would be changed to the Aluminum tab backs, which are harder to find.

The Nathan K3HL interred the Nathan catalog in early 2009 and now has been seen on a number of Union Pacific locomotives. They commonly are seen on UP C60AC locomotives!

Usually a horn that rarely leaves the basement, I decided to bring the Old Cast P5 out for some honking action. I love this horn!

Переглядів 97511 років тому
This horn is a third Quarter 1995 RS3KR, that means that chances are it was the last batch of horns ordered by BN from Leslie. Definitely a cool piece of history!

Long Island Railroad tagless 90's K5LA
God, now I'm really horny.
This is the tuning that Nathan should've kept for the raised letter K5LA horns, these early models. I remember these horns being featured on the NS, on their late Dash 9's (#9745-9978) and SD70M's (#2591-2648). Very nostalgic and musical chord. They sound noticeably sharper than the square tag horns of the 90's. The new raised letter K5LA's (about 2008-present) sound awful in my opinion.

No, it’s not
Pov: you live in glen carbon illinois in 1955 near glen tower and the IC local has just made its way from springfield to saint louis.
New to the train horn scene, I just want a K3HL for my rig, not worried so much about the looks paint, powdercoat, just so it works and sounds good. how much can I expect to pay?
Sounds like she needs more air but is very healthy
I love those horns!
Planning on buildin one soon

Wolverine uses this horn

Large or small inlets?
DAMN!!!!
My top 3 horns 3. Nathan P3 2. Nathan K5LA #1. Leslie RS5T
kind of generic picks, personally my top 3 are 3. Nathan Sandcast K3L 2. Nathan NF 2PC K5HLB 1. Leslie S5TFX
Sounds great. Long live the Missouri Pacific!
Ehh, it ain't haunting, but rather heavenly sounding!

Not bad for a raised letter horn!
Roses are red, Violets are blue. You searched for the HL2 train horn, didn't you?
Wow that quill is beauty!!
This is hands down the best K5LA ever made
2:40 when it’s night in a 80s movie
Damn good sounding raised letter K5LA

Atlanta Falcons horn or Syracuse horn
I bought an M5 about 2 years ago, then last year got a chance to go "unlimited air time" on it with a 100cfm tow behind compressor, it's a powerful thing having an M5 on demand for as long as you want.
I believe the notes being played are Db, G, Ab, B, Db.
Wow actually sounds good unlike most of the new ones
@Mr Zurkon ik raised letter horns arent anywhere as good as the earlier horns
0:00 Killer 2nd Gen K5H
The Sandcast K5H is likely from Early 1960s. So it far predates anything Generations wise. Also K horns don't have generations.
This recording is probably the best sounding horn I've ever heard!
The quieter 1 bell really does give that 'whistle' effect that Swanson intended for K horns. It's too bad the 1 bell rarely is actually the quietest, even on the Corkers.
Can a person purchase a new Nathan air chime horn from Micro Precision?
Music to my ears
I remember when trains had that sound. Santa Fe had a similar sound that was unmistakable. SP had their Nathan P3 in "A" that was also unmistakable. Now they have an electronic static buzzing sound, like a very loud dial tone. Nothing beautiful about them now.
Heard on Amtrak's SC-44 Chargers
MARCs chargers have raised letter K5LAs
@@nah_144 yup I've heard a MARC Charger with a raised letter K5LA before
Gorgeous M5 horn music, just beautiful. Is that an A Major 7th I hear? Lovely piece of 1950's railroading. The M5 was very popular on the B&O and C&O, but of course that was long before my time.

Sounds like ATL United scored a goal...
I love the mid 90s narrow font ones.
Does anyone know where I can find a good K5L? Most likely not a raised letter, I’ll take it if I need to but how rare are they?

I need those brass heads if anyone has some for sale.
You should reverse bell 2 and 3 or 2 and 4.
What do you use for air supply?
Really straining to find a video where there is not some goofy run by. Can nobody just set up their horn in a field and give a proper horn sequence without going squirrelly? Not asking a lot...!
Look up cnw8717. He puts all kinds of horns on his engine giving the crossing sequence
Sounds like a trombone
That quill is awesome! Sounds like a AMTK!
Someday I'll buy one.
Hehe backwoods
