Picked up a beautiful Lionel Legacy 6-34777 N&W SD40 from Mario's some months back. I almost didn't buy it because of the horn sound. Runs and looks great. But the horn is horrible. I knew it was because Eric's Trains had reviewed one (CSX I think). Figured I'd get used to it but the more I hear it the more convinced I am it's a harmonica recording. Staying very far away from the horn button! RICH

Rich I have a lot of old stuff and a friend was telling me the new Legacy does not sound so good, very bummed to hear this. I just shot this video to night all sound a little deferent.
Regardless of the sound, is the horn accurate? That's what's important. Many a real loco has a funky horn.
Me - I'm not too fond of the N&W hooter whistle on their freight steamers. But Lionel captured it quite well.

What does the horn on the Trackmobile sound like?
