Who in their right mind would bring up the issue of train horns? Thats what they do when they come to a crossing. How and when they blow is controlled by the government

Ask yourself who was here first, you or the railroad. If it was you then you might have a viable complaint. However if it was the railroad then sit back and enjoy the sounds of the American economy working to bring the many things you enjoy.

The railroads have always had enormous power in our country. Probably too much power. I don't think any lawyer would want to challenge the railroads in court.

I agree those pesky outside noises always interrupt my nap 🤣

As The Band sang around 1970 in their song “Where Do We Go From Here?”:

Did you hear about the railroad going under
How it seems its days are numbered on the board
And I feel sad about the railroad and it's no wonder
It would run right by my door
I can't hear it anymore
How can you get to sleep when the whistle don't moan?

How can you get to sleep when the whistle don’t blow?

This is interesting.

If you buy a house without due diligence, then either you should have your children or guardian, help you make decisions, instead of blaming it on a sales rep for your inability to invest your money wisely.

Well while we are at it. Police cars, fire engines and ambulances should not use sirens when they are going to an emergency. Stop the horn blowing on trains. LOL some people are so funny. Really....Where do people come up with these ideas.

Steep takeoffs land JWA on ‘scariest airports’ list – Orange County Register

You feel the nose lifting up, and up, and up. Air carriers leave John Wayne at an angle of between 20 and 25 degrees, according to several accounts. That’s about twice as steep as the departure from other airports, often around 10 to 15 degrees.

Shortly after takeoff, you might feel a sudden sinking sensation. The pilot has just cut engine power by up to 15 percent, from the full blast of takeoff to the steady drive of the climb.

LOL...I had forgotten about that thrilling takeoff experience

Train tracks were there before your house. Why did you buy there?

Complaints will Surely result in more and longer whistle blows..........just for spite

Yeah, I moved into a house under the glide path at LAX. Couldn’t sue ‘em nor stop the flights. Decided to move to away. Think Florida was far enough?

Ditto. I enjoy the train horns. I look forward to the cooler weather, opening the windows and hearing them more frequently. Very soothing sound.
