What air horns were used on the Q E Units back in the 1960's?

I have checked the five chime website 
(http://atsf.railfan.net/airhorns/) and several other websites and 
could not find specific mention of the horns used.  They sounded 
similar to the Leslie S-2m's used on the New York Central E's, and one 
E unit that I rode behind on the Denver Zephyr even sounded like it had 
the overblow affliction (one bell intermittently sounding high 
pitched).  

I noticed on the above website that many Metra cab cars and locomotives 
use the Leslie S-2m.
