That engine would have had Rock Island's standard Nathan P-5 five-chime airhorn.  Most of us growing up in the vicinity of the Rock were very fond of that mellow sound.

  Subject: [Rock] gp40 #394 horn


  Hi,
  I am building a detail associates horn for RI GP40 #394. I am trying to determine if it has 4 or 5 horns. I can only clearly make out 4 on each photo that I have seen. It looks like 2 forward and 2 backward. Almost all other units have 5. The photos I have are not clear. If someone has a better picture and could confirm this I would appreciate it. Or if someont could send me a picture it would be even better since the lengths of the horns are all different.
  Thanks
  Randy
