Re: [CBQ] 'E' unit airhorns

They used Leslie S-2Ms. I haven't found any for sale, so I used a Details West S-3 and snipped off the top bell. Looks pretty good to me.

The 'Q' started to replace the right (engineer's side) single air
horn on it's E-units, in the late 50's, with a two-bell facing
forward chime horn. The single horn on the fireman's side was left
alone. Does anybody know what make and style this two-bell horn was?
I want to duplicate this horn on my HO E-unit fleet. Jim Sandrin's
Burlington Bulletin on E-units doesn't mention what horn was used-
just that the 'Q' started to replace the single 'blat' horn with the
two-bell chime horn. Thanks in advance!
