Re: C-420 horns
Ed, It had an M3RT-1 when it was on the D&H. I checked in "Lehigh & Hudson River A Link in a Great Chain" by Robert Yanosey and all the photographic evidence points to them being delivered with M3RT1.

C-420 horns
Does anyone know what type of horn came on the ex-L&HR C-420 or the original 2 chime horns delivered on the ex-LV C-420's? I know some were converted to Nathan M-3R-T1s in the 80's. Thanks
