Horn Types

  by NYCJIM
 
Hi everyone! A friend of mine and I were discussing Conrail's horns. Most (or all)of Conrail's locomotives they were Leslie type (SL3's) Right?? Were these on the 80 Mac's? If not what were they??
Thanks, Jim :-)

Pretty much everythign was either an S3L or an RSU3L..With the occasional od one out..

6370, the exception.

The 6370, had KL5 chimes. I know since that unit was in the Cresson pusher pool in 1992 or so.

CSX has changed many of the horns on their former Conrail units for some reason...............probably to the K5LA's.
