These pages will help you possibly identify and offer some insightful information on the variations of train horn types and sounds. As you will hear, a locomotive horn (although intended for a warning device on a train) is not just some loud thing on the roof of a locomotive. Each chime is specifically machined out to blow a certain note. Model types, notes and frequencies will be described in the following pages.
