Remarks: With the dueling horns, I wasn't sure who would make it first! 33A power just makes it across the crossing as a hot 20W sails right on by. My original intention was to catch the Reading and Northern SW8M 803 trailing on 33A, but when I heard two track detectors go off almost simultaneously I knew I was in for a surprise. 33A would make a stop at CP Dorf to let 20W cross-over, we then catch up at the "Brickplant" to get another take on the 33A power. Just another case of hot versus not, and yes, that is a four-way intersection as well as the square of the town.

Nice Video! I love the two horns.

Thanks very much for sharing - I hear dueling horns every few days out here where I live - northeast of Merztown/northwest of Alburtis. One thing I love about living out here is the acoustics. It seems like the horns bounce off of South Mountain and echo up to the north. Good stuff!
