I just 'joined' the Nickel Plate society yesterday evening, filled out the application online and the check is in the mail. I just received a reply from a member there who provided me the following info......Thanks Keith!..... <br /> <br />"The horn on the GP30 and GP35 models was a Leslie model S3L 3-chime horn. I believe all of NKP's road switcher-type units had this same basic chord, although the earlier GP's and RS's had 2 separately-mounted horns, one 2-chime and one single-chime to achieve the <br />same effect. The Alco Bluebird PA units had Nathan M5 5-chime horns, which were reused on some of the RS36 units they were traded-in on." <br /> <br />Soundtraxx DOES make a sound module in the Sierra line that has the correct diesel and the correct horn....I'm all set ! <br /> <br />Jennifer
