        they are set to speak at 10psi each and you don't wanna stand beside them when they go off.I managed to get them off a ballast regulator before it went for s$$$$.I was thinking about putting them on mine but seeing as i'v spent so much on servicing and new turbo etc i don't think i will be able to aford a compressor to run them so i am thinking of selling them.If you want the measuements of them let me know as they are bigger than they look

          I can see they are BIG! maybe I wont have room for them, i couldnt find space for an oil catch tank. No idea how much psi my weedy compressor can do though at the moment.

            Just a thought, have you considered turning them backwards to keep the mud out? You'd sh!t yourself everytime you used the horn, but it might keep working

                    i wouldn't like to put a price on them at the mo as i never really thought about selling them till today and don't really know how much they are worth.I think postage will be a bit tho as they are fairly heavy

                    here's a bit of info on them
                    Ks 1 : E flat note - 311 Hz Part 30291
                    Ks 2 : G flat note - 370 Hz Part 30292

                    i am just trying to find out what they are going to be worth so will let you know if i can get a answer to my email

                      I have just had a price of £98 each for refurbs for these horns and they have sent me the details of what type of compressor you will need for running them.
                      you will need air supply of 7 bar ( 100psi) @ 11 ltrs per second
                      If you are still interested then make an offer and we'll go from there.
                      They will need a bit of a clean and repainting tho but condition wise they are in good nick for being on a train for a few years

                              God knows why those are some expensive

                              this is a copy of the email i got sent from a supplier of horns to different train companies.
                              new prices would be .KS1..£146.85
                              KS2..£144.70

                              we can offer the refurbs ( with 1 year warranty) @ £98.00 each
                              ex stock
                              there will be a carriage charge of £15.00
                              therefore total cost of £211.00 + vat

                              you will need air supply of 7 bar ( 100psi) @ 11 ltrs per second
                              see attached drawing of KS1 & 2
