ebay, you want a Nathan or a Leslie. Any aftermarket "train horn" will sound like Crap. Not even close to a train. My F250 had a set of P3's with 8 gallons of air, and a pressure regulator. I could get a full blast honk for 40 seconds before it petered out. It was tucked neatly next to and slightly behind the tanny.
Do not waist your $ on a fakie train horn if you want it to sound like a train.

I put some air horns off of ebay on my truck and they work great. However, I knew they were air horns and not train horns. I didn't spend Nathan or Leslie kinda money either. All in all, I'm happy. But yeah - the "train horns" on ebay definitely aren't that.
