There are three things that I think should be considered in this regard.First, there are some people who will complain no matter what. Those people are rightly ignored. Second, though, the decibel level at which horns are to blow was raised, and it's worth keeping in mind that it's a logarithmic scale. LIRR promulgated an order that horn blowing was to be reduced except where required, so now on many express runs through a station, there won't be the horn blasts and toots unless the engineer senses something awry. Third, the sound frequency on the M7 horns is very different from the higher pitched M1 horns, and this effect also makes for a discernible difference. |
