Popular Post ranchhopper Posted December 11, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2015 It came today like an early Christmas present I sold the last one I had just before restoring my truck and last summer everyone kept asking where is it meaning the locomotive horn I have had in parades for years. I bought this from a friend in south carolina and its as next to new as they get I am planning to polish the bells like aluminum wheels as they are cast aluminum. Saturday I will take it out and see how it sounds we have a woods next door and it echos real nice so you can really hear what it sounds like from the front instead of being behind it by the way that's a 65 pound dog next to it in the pictures so it gives it some perspective as to how big they are. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranchhopper Posted December 11, 2015 Author Share Posted December 11, 2015 I have a 30 gallon tank from an old craftsman compressor I plumb it into the air system so it has a good reserve these Nathan airchimes take way less air than the older leslie horns so a 30 gallon reserve is plenty and 120 pounds of air pressure gives it full volume I believe its spec'd out to be heard for three miles.
