Description: Train horns! is a video series that listens to different types of air horns used on North American locomotives at railroad crossings. Part 7 features the Nathan Airchime P3. This video is a bit shorter since this is all of the recordings I could find. Some of these trains appear in longer videos, which links can be found below (or in the cards tab). If you like train horns, please check out my playlist here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL02SJYDMhhAsVhFiR30Vcw4tUFtPaghAc More information about the Nathan P3 can be found below the video timeline: 0:00 - Canadian Pacific 9726 P3 - 3/30/16 1:00 - CEFX 1047 P3 - 2/21/15 1:45 - NS 3366 P3 - 3/30/15 2:15 - NS 9553 P3 - 5/06/15 2:50 - D&H 7303 P3 - 9/17/15 - (youtu.be/N2VU872rWrA) 3:25 - SOO 6053 P3 - 12/07/15 - (youtu.be/029BlZkP468) 4:20 - NS 6711 P3 - 2/10/16 4:45 - NS 2408 P3 - 4/15/16 6:05 - CN 5428 P3 - 6/28/16 7:05 - NS 5171 P3 - 7/22/16 7:45 - NS 3521 P3 - 5/01/18 8:40 - PW 4301 P3 - 10/23/18 - (youtu.be/XkQ8XX-mDQU) 9:15 - NS 9321 P3 - 11/03/18 9:45 - GECX 7544 P3 - 11/06/18 - (I accidentally placed this in the P5 video and forgot to remove it, so sorry for the duplicate upload). The P3 was a common horn on the Southern Pacific, and found to a lesser extent than the P5 on the Illinois Central and Southern Railway. This horn has become scarce over the years, but still exists in some capacity on most Class I railroads: most former SP horns are now on Union Pacific locomotives; some early UP SD70M's were delivered with P3's. Some ex-BN and ex-Santa Fe units can be heard with these horns as well. Most P3's on Canadian railroads were added to their roster from acquiring units from US locomotives (SOO and former Oakway SD60's), but this is not always the case as a few Canadian Pacific and CEFX AC4400CW's wear P3's. We'll see some ex-SOU units still retaining P3's, as well as some NS units that ended up with these horns. Norfolk Southern has been swapping out P3's on many of their locomotives since 2017.
