Same here I love the Ashland cam I have been viewing other virtual Railfan cams lately I have been watching the Fort Madison cam for a while now I have 2 computers some times have 2 streams going at once I like the Ashland one I love hearing the horns I dont like it that Ashland its a no train horn zone.
Mute Man: "I didn't see it coming!" Blind Man: "I didn't hear it coming!" Deaf Man: "..." Train Man: "Mute... Blind... Deaf... uh... are you sure that's what you three are?" Their Three Wives: "They legally changed their name for a dumb joke."
Engineer, based out of queensgate yard in cinti., ohio, but i live in kentucky, freight routes i ran were to corbin, louisville, indianapolis, lima, willard , and walbridge, russell, ashland, huntington, columbus, amtrak routes were on the amtrak cardinal , between cinti., oh. And indianapolis, and between cinti. Oh. And huntington, wv.
I've had that happen with my car's horn in downtown traffic. Now *that* was embarrassing. Took me ten minutes parked on the side of the road to find the horn fuse.
CSX crew: "Bill, the horns stuck again and we are entering Ashland" "Thats fine, Virtual Railfan" has 2 cameras there, they'll get a nice horn show" *conductor trying to fix the problem* "Wait, thats the camera right there, ahhhh shoot, they got my backside"
There probably were a ton of complaints about how the driver was leaning on the horn for no reason. I've seen this happen with cars a few times too though.
That was pretty funny. I spotted the co-pilot(co-engineer) working in the engine bay trying to stop that continuous horn blast before you showed it to me again. In case a situation like this happens (again), bring earmuffs with you. Maybe use the same type of headphones that plane & helicopter pilots use.
Where I once worked we had an old pickup truck that occasionally decided of its own accord to honk its horn. One of the guys I worked with was a bit of a nut and when the horn decided to go he would just act enraged at whoever was in front of us.
Those people that don’t now any thing about trains standing at the side of the track were like I’m listening too music can be you be Quiet can’t you stop
Wow he was in the engine that was a serious case... he was maybe trying to turn off the air compressor so no more air would get to the horn so that would shut off the horn.
we have a parade every year, with trucks that pull trailers that people use to design for the parade and while they go down the parade route, the truck drivers like to sound off the trucks horn(s) at certain points, but one time the driver sounded it, and it actually got stuck just like the one on the train here, I guess there was nothing the truck driver could do, so here was this truck going down at least the 5 mile parade route, his horn just Blaring away the whole time, bet it wasnt very much fun for all of the people who were on the truck's trailer having to listen to that the whole way down the parade route, most nerve racking thing Ive heard in quite a long time....and those horns are LOUD...lol
we have a parade ever year, not a train parade but a regular one with floats and whatever and withn it there are quite a number of semi trucks used with their trailers ands one time, a semi trucks Horn got stuck and the driver couldnt stop it so he went down the Whole parade route with those air horns just blaring away and with how slow those trucks have to travel down the route, I felt really sorry for the people who were on the trucks trailer that had to endure the whole thing........
daylan phelps it has bad wiring being a Solenoid valve and that the electric flow to the magnets could have been constantly moving even though they released the lever
Uday Pullela because that was a needed route and they don’t want to spend millions or billions of dollars moving it like me. And the city likes the trains
It's always Ashland's live feed that has something going on and I'm loving it.
railfanallen it's true, Ashland almost always has something wierd going on
railfanallen yup
railfanallen It's where all the action is.
Same here I love the Ashland cam I have been viewing other virtual Railfan cams lately I have been watching the Fort Madison cam for a while now I have 2 computers some times have 2 streams going at once I like the Ashland one I love hearing the horns I dont like it that Ashland its a no train horn zone.
Poor guy was trying to crawl into the engine to get away from the noise.
R J
Looking for the horn cutout.
The engine would be even louder
Well at least he doesn't have to worry about blowing the horn at every crossing.
Well, nobody can say they didn't hear the train coming.
unless your an 80 year old man who can't hear.
Mute Man: "I didn't see it coming!"
Blind Man: "I didn't hear it coming!"
Deaf Man: "..."
Train Man: "Mute... Blind... Deaf... uh... are you sure that's what you three are?"
Their Three Wives: "They legally changed their name for a dumb joke."
Yep, better that than no horn at all!
There is an air valve behind the engineers panel , where the horn sound can be increased or decreased, from a retired csx and amtrak engineer.
@Steve Logan you really used to work for Amtrak & CSX? What were you?
Engineer, based out of queensgate yard in cinti., ohio, but i live in kentucky, freight routes i ran were to corbin, louisville, indianapolis, lima, willard , and walbridge, russell, ashland, huntington, columbus, amtrak routes were on the amtrak cardinal , between cinti., oh. And indianapolis, and between cinti. Oh. And huntington, wv.
Steve Logan that’s amazing.
JDzOnline it was along career
JDzOnline if you have any questions that you might want answered, i can probably answer
Railbuffs probably loved it. I'll bet it was music to ears.
Henry: It isn't wrong, but we just don't do it!
Sir Topham Hatt: TAKE HIM AWAY!!! AND STOP THAT NOISE!!!
Haha! Serves them right for making it a quiet zone!
You know the warranty just expired too!
Some say, he's still honking that horn non stop through every town he goes through.
I'm imagining Homer Simpson forgetting to let go of the lever haha.
Just playing with a little slot car track he built in the cab
Doh!!
No, its peter griffin that's doing it.
“It isn’t wrong, but we just don’t do it!”
Happened to a CN eastbound in Mishawaka, IN winter of 2019. CN 2165s K3LA blared and could be heard for miles.
I would have been so embarrassed to have that happen to me and I would try to fix it. Man I don’t want to imagine that
I've had that happen with my car's horn in downtown traffic. Now *that* was embarrassing. Took me ten minutes parked on the side of the road to find the horn fuse.
Happened to me with my old car. Horn barely worked right. When it did, 9 times out of 10 it stuck.
Especially through a quiet zone
I have heard about this happening, but unfortunately didn't get to see on live camera.
Well, you can't physically see noise.... can you?
Ashland city: we are a no honking zone
CSX: Let me think about that
CSX crew:
"Bill, the horns stuck again and we are entering Ashland"
"Thats fine, Virtual Railfan" has 2 cameras there, they'll get a nice horn show"
*conductor trying to fix the problem*
"Wait, thats the camera right there, ahhhh shoot, they got my backside"
Next minute, Karen is raging in the ear of the CSX Public Relations rep about a train blowing its horn all the way through Ashland VA
There probably were a ton of complaints about how the driver was leaning on the horn for no reason. I've seen this happen with cars a few times too though.
Almost certainly at least one local resident complained.
So much for Ashland's quiet zone
Gotta throw the whole thing out
"It isn't wrong...but we just don't do it." Then he told Edward what Gordon had said.
I would be impressed if this train came through Winfield Alabama with its horn still blowing
I would expect that from a U30C or a Dash 8-40C, but an ES44AH? You have to be kidding me, GE Transportation.
Trans-Galactic Express GE At it’s finest
I don't give a toot.
I don't think the people of Ashland cared. It's the government that wanted the quiet zone. Lol!
"It Isn't wrong"
chuckled Henry
*But We Just Don't Do It*
That just happened a few weeks ago where I live on the Harrisburg east sub. Between Harrisburg and philly. But it was 11 at night!
Now that’s a screamer!
That was pretty funny. I spotted the co-pilot(co-engineer) working in the engine bay trying to stop that continuous horn blast before you showed it to me again.

That's a major ooops! Have to get Kathy (COTU) to take that up with the town counsel at the next meeting! LOL :)
A stuck train horn is the least of the problems for Ashland and the train/tracks.
Where I once worked we had an old pickup truck that occasionally decided of its own accord to honk its horn. One of the guys I worked with was a bit of a nut and when the horn decided to go he would just act enraged at whoever was in front of us.
Cover your ears! I have earbuds in! IT JUST MAKES IT LOUDER!!!
Good! That's what all quiet zones deserve!
Those people that don’t now any thing about trains standing at the side of the track were like I’m listening too music can be you be Quiet can’t you stop
At least it wasn't in the middle of the night.
Very long train & nice video
Wow he was in the engine that was a serious case... he was maybe trying to turn off the air compressor so no more air would get to the horn so that would shut off the horn.
Hey, John, wake up! You fell asleep holding the horn on!
we have a parade every year, with trucks that pull trailers that people use to design for the parade and while they go down the parade route, the truck drivers like to sound off the trucks horn(s) at certain points, but one time the driver sounded it, and it actually got stuck just like the one on the train here, I guess there was nothing the truck driver could do, so here was this truck going down at least the 5 mile parade route, his horn just Blaring away the whole time, bet it wasnt very much fun for all of the people who were on the truck's trailer having to listen to that the whole way down the parade route, most nerve racking thing Ive heard in quite a long time....and those horns are LOUD...lol
Oh my god. I’ve seen videos about this.
I never seen a train horn get stuck like that
This happens to transport trucks & highway motorcoach buses too.
It was at that moment the engineer knew.... he oofed up
Have u tried turning it off and on again
we have a parade ever year, not a train parade but a regular one with floats and whatever and withn it there are quite a number of semi trucks used with their trailers ands one time, a semi trucks Horn got stuck and the driver couldnt stop it so he went down the Whole parade route with those air horns just blaring away and with how slow those trucks have to travel down the route, I felt really sorry for the people who were on the trucks trailer that had to endure the whole thing........
Couldn't he go into the fuses and disable the horn?
Well that actually fits right in, along with the people that drive on the tracks all the time... 😕😕😉
Quite the horn show
Precision railroading
i've only had to deal with a blaring train horn in my ear for an extended period of time twice in my life
That guy was like 'hmmm. what in here?'

The Lever That turns on the horn could be stuck on HORN ON
daylan phelps it has bad wiring being a Solenoid valve and that the electric flow to the magnets could have been constantly moving even though they released the lever
*DAYUM CSX.*
At least it was a good sounding horn
And what is the problem? According the many train videos, American people love to hear a train horn and hates quiet / no horn zones.
How could that ever happen?
How does that even happen?
Oh yes
Wow
Is that what a train alarm sounds like when someone's trying to break in?
yep totally!1!1
Does anyone know what those containers are on the first few cars?
Ash from Pepco power plant
Uh oh
Knew someone was desperately trying to find a way to fix it lol
Every train should behave like that. :))
They behave like that we'd have less people mis judging the train.
of corse the horn got stuck... its CSX
Yup
This occurs rarely
ohh no the quiet zone well im preying for that crew
What else would he be doing.....
Trying to find his wallet
XD!
Checking oil or fuel.
I don't see why.
Automcanic finding the cutoff
This Happened With A Norfolk Southern That Passed By My House
They could’ve just closed the valve in the Control stand lol
0:27 RIP HEADPHONES USERS
CSX 752 is Sick by having a stuck horn
That didn’t hurt my ears
At least it’s a k5hl
Why have a train running through designated quiet zone?
Uday Pullela because that was a needed route and they don’t want to spend millions or billions of dollars moving it like me. And the city likes the trains
... and we like the Ashland videos!
Bad wiring maybe
Some valve probably got knocked loose and opened fully
And someone would still get hit by that train...
Good. I bet, not one car pulled in front of the train. 4 minutes of the horn.🤣
Defective Nathan m3 horn
Daniel French The horn is actually a Nathan Airchime K5HL
Daniel French A Nathan M3 would have been amazing!
Ashland really needs the horn stuck.
Everything breaks in Ashland. Home of the worlds worst drivers.
He is defently fixing it
i feel bad for the guy outside
i like the horn but very weird for that to happen and the train worker tried to fix the train horn and i hope he got it fixed
Naythan Wallace if not, he was coming up on Acca yard in 14 miles
of course its Ashland
Does "stuck" mean it simply refuses to turn off?
Thomas Palmer maybe so
Even if the engineer is not activating it?
No it means it's stuck pressed down
AlongCameDalton but that is clearly not right because Ashland is a no horn zone.
THIS QUIET ZONE OFFENDS SLAANESH
Well I hope the guy trying to fix it was wearing ear plugs
Trains coming to a crossing in Mexico be like
What the What just happened ?
It seems that the horn didn’t turn off so the conductor went to the engine to solve the problem...
I’m autistic so Sound even loud ones make me laugh 😂 not sure they should fix the horn on the move.
Many people will not understand why it would make you laugh. Could you explain more? I just want to make sure people don't misunderstand you. :)
Có đoàn tàu chở hàng hú còi liên tục
All he could’ve done was to drop the circuit breaker for the horn.
D A Sheffield CAN'T, IT'S ON THE OTHER TRAIN.
D A Sheffield if it's an air valve stuck open that won't do anything
RIP headphones users.
I CAN'T HEAR ANYTHING, TRAIN HORN IS TOO LOUD!!! Also, WHOOPS! Lol
It isn’t wrong but we just don’t do it.
