Loved hearing a musicians take on them. I have mostly lived (audibly) near a railway line until this place where I have been for about 18 years. Recently I started hearing train horns like those you have here. I cant quite figure out where from but it must be due to a torn down building or changing winds. Whatever it is I like the sound being back in my life. Great post. Loved hearing a musicians take on them.

I have some toy train horns which produce not quite so many notes but in the standard choo-choo ballpark. There are places you can buy real ones, advertised by their annoying loudness: http://www.pbmissions.com/ Yes, great stuff.

Glad I'm not the only one. That 'Bernard Herrman' one rocks! Sounds like you are enjoying Oakland. I'm very tempted to try the Bay Area at some point, so it's good to know a bit about the different areas. Happy Landings!
