RAW VIDEO: Train horn blares for 3 hours in Upper Merion 

Hi Thunderbolt

So you live not far from those tracks?

@@RedlineRevingVirtualTuning I'm literally right across the river from them. Abrams yard is about a 5 minute drive (traffic dependent) from where I live

@@Thunderbolt_1000_Siren ohhhh

Same I live by the yard a little down the trqcks

oh that's what i heard at about 4 or 5 this morning.

I was wondering when someone would say that.

Omg lol

Yes it was

After hearing it for 3 hours straight i wouldnt think that way anymore

Yeah, very nice.

Yes it’s a great K5LA

You right

Will Stuck

3rd locomotive was a C40-9 which is a standard cab dash 9

@@ejdsndnj that's cool. NS rebuilt all of those into AC44C6Ms. They're also currently rebuilding the wide cab Dash 9s.

@@TheAustinSubRailfan Yeah

I’d love to hear that

Same, beautiful horn.

Heck no! Train horns save lives

The Old Main Guy I know. I’m saying that’s why they exist. People think this is on purpose and are like “ohh nooo please never blow horns again!!”

@@TriStateRailfan yeah it sure can keep people up at night. I mean I'm a bit biased since I love train horns but I've never been in favor of no train horn zones

@@TheOldMainGuy EXACTLY!!

Nice reference to Thomas the tank engine.

Yup.

You called?

Not after 3 hours

Yes

all the upper merion residents were disturbed, was reported to police and train company issued an apology too

Chakradhar Sonu Oh bitch please who gives a damn. I wouldn't mind that the train horn blows the horn at late night hours... I'm used to it. I'm a former railfan.

Tonys Amtrak Train Videos this is what people gets for quiet zones

@@tonysamtraktrainvideos Not everyone is a railfan

@@PrimeMoverRailfanProductions Ok where did you come from? I commented on this two years ago, and now you're comment me saying that rubbish! I already know that! I'm not 15 years old, I'm only 24 years old for god sakes..

Will yeah

quick! someone autotune it into one!

This isn't the first time a horn on a locomotive has got stuck. A horn shutoff valve is located on the engine in case it happens.

As NS 9386

Yes and it does happen sometimes. A shutoff valve is located on all engines for when something like this happens

And trainz players:

That’s a dash 9

A GE C40-9W to be exact.

Dash 9

Thats a dash 9. And notice the 3rd locomotive is an NS standard cab dash 9..

CSX had a similar incident of a stuck horn when their locomotive went through Ashland on Virtual Railfan

@@johndeerefan725 Horns stick. That happens. Did they leave it blaring for 3 hours?

@@brianleeper5737BNSF Had a situation where it was stuck for a solid 6! They had to destroy the horn.

Air brakes. Big 50+ horsepower, 250+ CFM compressors on each unit. Times three units. = Enough air to blast a dozen air horns simultaneously without breaking a sweat.
