What is a "train horn"?
A train horn is a loud sound device used on trains to alert people and vehicles of the train's presence. It is typically operated by the train's conductor or engineer and can be heard from a distance, making it an important safety feature. The horn is used in various situations, such as when approaching crossings, stations, or areas with low visibility, to warn pedestrians, drivers, and others nearby to stay clear of the tracks. Train horns vary in sound and intensity but are designed to be heard over long distances and through noise from the train itself.
Example
When the train horn sounded, everyone at the crossing knew to stay clear of the tracks.
The piercing sound of the train horn echoed through the valley, warning hikers of the approaching locomotive.
Due to its volume, a train horn can be heard from several miles away in quiet rural areas.
