Default Train Horns Anyone?

There was a guy with a big rig towing a cat up at boyne and he had a train horn on his truck that nearly made me crap my pants. Anybody have one or know of one that is priced well and sounds good.

They sell one at harbor freight, but don't think its an actual train horn.. too small?? Saw it in person, but can't find on website..

I have a Nathan p3 from the Seattle dinner train. 152 db. Loud as crap and lots of fun

The horn boasters aren't real, they're fun but not the same

Horn boasters is probably the best place to get the entire setup you'll need. I run 2 sets of horns on my F250. I pieced the kit together back in 06 & only had a single set on my Duramax. In 08 when I bought the 250 I added 2 new Viar 480C compressors & upped my air pressure to 200 psi along with adding the 2nd set of horns. Knowing what I know now & if I had to start from scratch, I would just buy a compete setup from HB.

Xtreme diesel sells a bunch of different train horn kits. Some are expensive.

back in the early 80's I had a ford fiesta for a run around car. I put three air horns under the hood. No one ever had a clue where the noise was coming from. Miss that horn!
