Title: Horn swaggled!
Post by: Badhorse79 on April 21, 2010, 02:18:11 PM
Hey all!!! I was At work this morning and a southbound train outta sharon yard (not sure what train number all I could do is hear it ) the horn was stuck, felt sorry for the crew because it lasted for a good 15 to 20 mins or  till it was outta earshot from me! I don't think it was the lead loco as you could hear them blowing for the crossings and that was cool eventhough there was a horn stuck open they still took caution ....anyway just wanted to let ya all know

There's a video on you-tube of a CSXT (former Conrail) SD60 widecab (not sure if it was I or M) but it's solenoid got stuck and it's K-5LAR24 just kept blowing.

Pretty sure these two episodes have happened before.
