First off, Just wanted to say hello to everyone… This is my first post on trains forums!
Does anyone know what particular horn the Santa Fe used on their locomotives? (esp) the more modern power they had before the merger with bn, for example SD’s GP’s Dash 8/9’s
any info would be appreciated!

I believe the SD75M had the Nathan K3la or a variant. Not sure about any of the others.

The ATSF standard bearer horn from at least the 80s and into the 90s was the Leslie RS3L. They also used K3LA horns throughout the 80s and to the merger (and beyond), so either of those will do, but the RS3L was king of the ATSF. They used them on everything from SD45s and GP30s through the dash 8s. I believe (though not certain on this) that the K3LA was on all of the GP60 class units.
