I knew this was a dangerous place for a quiet zone, because people keep walking on the tracks. I've seen it happen here multiple times, and only time tells when someone gets killed. Many people do complain about the noise of a train horn, because it is often louder than 120db upclose, but what they don't realize that it is a LIFE SAVER
@@AmtrakCSXFan457 Funny, because a year after I posted this comment its a quiet zone again... By the FRA's standards it doesn't even qualify, I believe the city got some sort of wavier or something? If they don't fix their wayside horns and people keep getting hit the trains will blow their horns again without a doubt
Every time I go fishing on the pier i always hear the wayside horns, and it always sounds like music to my ears. I used to think it was a steam engine when I was little.

Well at least to me quiet zones can be heaven, since I live near the railroad. I mean cmon, how can you live in a house when the windows are shattering from the K5LLA? Otherwise I'm fine with non quiet zones anywhere else. You know though, if you railfan near a crossing, there can sort of be an advantage to the quiet zone. Usually with no quiet zone, the train is honking specifically for the crossing, but if there is a quiet zone and the train honks, then it could be the engineer acknowledging you, so you can feel good about it.
Apparently so… I went there today and it’s still a quiet zone. I was walking along the trail from the Metrolink station to the pier and an sc-44 just creeped up behind me without any horn indication.
>:( These horns define San Clemente ! I understand these horns can get loud at times, but this place is a vacation area, No one should ever complain about the horns, because if you want to visit there!, They should be willing to tolerate these horns because they must pay the price to visit this beautiful place!
I have gone to San Clemente Beach for many years to enjoy the ocean and the trains at the same time. There seem to always be a lot of people there in the summer and it always worries me that someone will be hit. Isn't it time for there to be a plan to raise the tracks so that pedestrians can safely go under the tracks and not have to cross over them? With the tracks raised there would be little bridges where anyone could safely access the beach at any time. Just an idea to consider.
No people like quite zones plus a lot of places in Europe the trains only blow their horn when in danger of hitting a person etc, the train horns here are extremely unneeded at times
San Clemente’s QZ was always quite shaky on legal terms. They applied for it through the CPUC, but a federally regulated QZ can only be given out by the FRA.
I live right on that hill, yes its a very easy walk, but the horns are not that loud honestly, not louder than the ocean at least, unless the train is right there, which is only for a couple seconds
It's a wayside whistle for dumb people that cross the track when the train is coming but it doesn't work so they keep getting hit and that why the QZ is gone.
I live in the area and was wondering if you know why the quiet zones were terminated? I agree the "wayside whistle" has to go now that regular horns are back
@@alexandergeorge5419 downloads.regulations.gov/FRA-2020-0038-0004/attachment_1.pdf It appears to be a City screw up. The QZ will be back once things get sorted out.

A necessary evil as some would say.

This wayside horn is awesome! I need to go out there to see it. Awesome video!
gosh, those SC-44 horns are beautiful!!!
Because the SC44 are beautiful
If you’re concerned why there’s no steam locomotive, the Wayside crossing has a good recording of ATSF 3751’s whistle.
Awesome video! You guys are SO lucky, I'm jealous
This still seems surreal! Just another thing to be thankful for!
The reaction from the kids and the people is priceless, like "whats this? whats this? this foreign sound i hear?!"
I wonder why they got rid of the no horn zones there in the first place?
The wayside(Steam Horn variant) sounds pretty dope 😮
Unpopular opinion perhaps, but I think the wayside whistle and K5 combo sounds pretty cool in some of the clips.
Karen is going to freakout about the train horns returning to San Clemente
Bnsf is the best train video in San Clemente
finally, they are back to life!
Update: or so we thought?
Ah heck yeah I’m ready to hear all of the horns blow
lets just say that thumbnail def aged well. u jinxed it skert lmao
Is it still like this?
The quiet zone has been brought back there again
Looks nice there might head there next time I’m in SoCal.
why was the quiet zone removed? if it was safety, then brightline needs it removed too. they have far more incidents
San Clemente Karen’s have entered the chat
LOL
Bruhh I can hear them from my house like ten miles away
Rairloid crossing San Clemente train station
18:17 i love the BNSF horn
1st gen K5HL
that person be like at 1:36 is like “stawp dat horn that is to loud”
I absolutely hate quiet zones so it’s nice to hear about one that is permanently removed 😌
I don’t like quiet zones but I understand why they are here. Nobody should hate them
@@Cal90208 ehhh everybody has a right to hate quiet zones lol

And it’s a Quiet zone again...

If I recall correctly in a recent video, the wayside whistles have unfortunately returned.
>:(

i wouldnt do that because people like watching the train zoom by and i mean its right by the walk plus now they got horns so they dont worry now
Near fisherman’s there is a walkway that goes under the tracks, it’s on the left of the screen, I’ve also been under it. 3:50
Awesome video
I will watch you train video Saturday night 8 pm
Great video
This is great! Now let’s get rid of the other quiet zones!!!!!!
That’s absolutely correct. They should get rid of the quiet zones.
No people like quite zones plus a lot of places in Europe the trains only blow their horn when in danger of hitting a person etc, the train horns here are extremely unneeded at times
1:11 what else other than the bells was I hearing? Was that a whistle of some sort?
Its a wayside horn, basicly a dumbass horn on the crossing
@@pennsylvanianrailfan oh I thought a steam locomotive was traveling on that line
San Clemente’s Waysides use a nice recording of ATSF 3751’s Whistle.
Yea lol
letssssssssssssssss gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo nice chose caly
and bnsf
I think wayside horns and real horns are a good combo
That’s awesome that the horns are in use again. Stupid waysides
Those badas* fraight trains at night tho.
No more wayside horns :D
That’s right! Blow them train horns because all of us railfans will make sure they do!
Heck yeah
I will watch you train video Saturday night
Let’s go
Why was it overturned?
The crossings were declared private, meaning a QZ was illegal.
probably bc people keep getting hit
Train horns are always louder than wayside horns
Why sam clemente has their own pitched horn
And was that a steam locomotive I heard
Yes, San Clementes Wayside Horns use a nice recording of ATSF 3751’s Whistle.
Which F125 used its backup K2?
F125 911, when it was leading
welp I knew people would get so stupid and not following the train rules so this is there punishment
the beautiful sounds of horn's >:3
15:58
LMAO
I’m moving there
The thumbnail aged like milk
That wayside horn is annoying BNSFGUY7777.
14:12 northeast corridor NJtransit
2:00 Did that kid just curse?!
I'm surprised that didn't last very long Now it's gone back to a quiet zone unfortunately
What’s all that annoying whistling while the train is coming
1:21 No masks...
Shh
the only good wayside horn
The heck
Hi Skyler this is Izaiah from Instagram @Izaiah_wizz
What happend for their not to be train horns in san clemente
there are residences on that same hill where the train tracks are, less than a minutes walk. I can imagine it was very loud to be around 24/7
San Clemente’s QZ was always quite shaky on legal terms. They applied for it through the CPUC, but a federally regulated QZ can only be given out by the FRA.
I live right on that hill, yes its a very easy walk, but the horns are not that loud honestly, not louder than the ocean at least, unless the train is right there, which is only for a couple seconds
I'm happy not to live in a quiet zone.
But I only get 1 train per day so yea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
😡😡😡😡I DIDN'T GIT TO SEE THE STEEM TRAIN
It's a wayside whistle for dumb people that cross the track when the train is coming but it doesn't work so they keep getting hit and that why the QZ is gone.
The wayside horns need to be disabled ASAP.
I live in the area and was wondering if you know why the quiet zones were terminated? I agree the "wayside whistle" has to go now that regular horns are back
The qz was terminated due to an extensive amount of pedestrian strikes in a short amount of time

@@alexandergeorge5419 downloads.regulations.gov/FRA-2020-0038-0004/attachment_1.pdf It appears to be a City screw up. The QZ will be back once things get sorted out.
