[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by railpac [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Alaskaman I know were are talking bout horns here but yesterday i heard a terrible sounding bell on one of the locos. Sounded like my digital alarm clock... you call that a bell???!!!!! [/quote] Alaskaman, it sounds like what you herd was an electronic bell (basically a loud speaker broadcasting a bell "like" sound). The Milwaukee Road gave this system a try in the late 70s thru early 80s, but the crews hated them, and they didn't stay for long. I have herd a recording of one of these bells and they truly are annoying[^]. [/quote] You're right! It sounded like a radio with a bad signal. I can see/hear why crews hated it... Is that cheaper than the normal kind? Or do they want to make it sound more annoying so people will actually pay attention?
