IMPORTANT: You will need to upgrade the program in your locomotive modules to play these properly.

I will have to download those and try them to, unless I missed one, I don't think Railpro offers the most common horn in North America, the K-5LA used by CSX, Amtrak and many others.  The horns that Railpro does seem to have a "darker" tone to them, probably flat instead of sharp.  The K-5LA that I need sounds like: http://www.dieselairhorns.com/sounds/AirchimeK5LA.mp3

He's been looking for a good recording of the K5LA for a long time.  I don't have one, otherwise I'd provide it.  If we can crowd source a decent recording then we'll be in business.  Anyone have one?  Or access to one?

I wonder if he could contact the webmaster of this website? http://www.dieselairhorns.com/sounds.html?album=5
He seems to have a "few" options!
I also found these:

The Leslie 5 chime would also be very welcomed as these are on many former Chessie and Seaboard locomotives. 

Now I do understand you're looking for a version that doesn't carry copyrights nor have ambient noises, but I don't have access to either, so just trying to help if I can.   What is involved in getting the horn recordings?  How do you do it?

I added the Wabco to my RS-2. It sounds great!
