I thought it was a duck call gone wrong.

Lets hope that when the 'sisters' come to America; They'll get  really pretty, loud voices.

I know that the European's love those 'squeakers' that they use on their trains.  Please let them be LOUD!

Leslie's or Nathan's (not the Weiners)  Even those Canadian Horns would be good,too!

Not those noise makers that sound like a pig hit in his organs

This link is to a website that for a click will bring you the sounds of Diesel Air Horns:

 This is for our Railfanning Bretheren who are Horn Challenged!
