But usually, with the diesels, they tend to pull it in a respectable distance away from the block. The ALPS though, they bring it all the way in and they can get pretty noisy there.Erik wrote:I would say about 10 minutes after I walked through the ALP-46, I hear some idiot in it, blowing the horn, constently. I hear they imidietly took the guy out of there, and closed off the ALPI recall that like yesterday. Most likely the chief reason why there's no festivals nowadays.as I belive there is some sort of horn rule for the Hoboken trainshed, hence why its always cab car first into the shed"Horn rule"? Cab cars and EMUs have horns too, so any kind of rule involving horns that might exclude a locomotive from the east end of Hoboken could not be centered around horns. Possibly a noise rule? I've seen ALPs on the east end of trains in Hoboken quite often...and rarely (during rush hours) I've seen diesels on the east end too.
