      @@RomanoRailfanning Agreed. the horns in other countries don't have the same powerful feeling as horns in the US like the legendary k5la and others. The old Acela and P42s are loud and powerful, and the horn lines up with that thinking and that's where a lot of us find trains cool. Sort of how plane spotters like a good n' loud MD-80 -- you can feel the power and it gives you a rush.
      But the odd thing is, the louder the engine, the less efficient it is. So as trains become more quiet to become more efficient, a lot of us loose out on that powerful feeling when a train goes by. And the European horn sort of embodies that "this is a light-weight efficient train" ... like the 'smart car' mentality of trains. Sort of sad, since I'll really miss those beefy trains Amtrak is retiring. Don't get me wrong, high speed trains like the TGV are really cool -- one of my favorite train rides was on a TGV going 180+ mph, watching the land just glide by -- but there's something cool some of us like about those noisy, "inefficient" trains.

      They ahould’ve gotten high acceleration trains instead of high speed, with the low average speed and all the curves of the NEC, would give much better service, something like the Alstom Coradia Stream, a 125mph EMU with S train level acceleration.

    I don't get why people hate the two-tone horn. I think it's a nice deviation from only using one type of horn on their locomotives. Plus it's unique. My favorite horns are the two-tone horn on the TGV, BR Class 37, BR Class 47, The Music Horn on the Narita Express and the flute whistles on the HOT7000 and JRF EF66.

    Nice thing that Amtrak avelia can expand to add more cars for more riders in the future. The old Acela can’t do that.

    • @FFred-us9tw
      @FFred-us9tw Рік тому +2

      Sure it can. It’s been done. They have run test trains of the current Acela with 10 cars and typically once a month run it with 7 cars. Adding a coach is not a big. Amtrak simply has no spare coaches to use and the maintenance buildings can’t fit anything larger than 6 coaches in normal service.
