violakat03 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 It was brought up in Tom's birthday meet-up thread that many people have never heard Diamondback's all-clear horn. This is the horn that is sounded after the coaster is stopped for any amount of time to warn anyone in the vicinity to clear the tracks. Yesterday when it was down for a minor mechanical problem, I got a very clear recording of the horn when the ride started back up and I thought I'd share it on here for everyone that hasn't gotten to hear it yet. http://www.esnips.com/doc/a4af96b4-1718-4f...amondbacks-horn WARNING: This sound clip is VERY LOUD. Turn the sound on your computer almost all the way down. I had mine on level 7 (out of 100) and could still hear it perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

violakat03 Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 You rock. I couldn't figure out how to embed it without using html tags (which don't work on the forums). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCobra Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 When I hear that every morning the first thing that always comes to mind is from being at alot of hockey games, that someone just scored a goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast79 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I could easily hear that from Great Wolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogrmac Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Thanks Kat (and Oldiesmann)! I never thought about the coasters having horns, but it does make sense that they would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_junky Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 is that able to be heard all the way back by the hammerhead, because i know that on the tenth there wasn't a horn sounded, but there was a maintnance man walking around back by the hammerhead.

thatbandguy8807 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I have to listen to that thing every morning when I get to the park LOL...you can hear it througout the park..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 And the first time I heard Diamondback's horn, the first thing I thought was "Wait, that can't be Kingda Ka!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 ^Hahahaha, I was thinking some what of the same thing: "Will you people wait till I get away from the 2 inch hydraulic lines, jees just give me a little time." (well that and a couple of choice words.) Those Ka people were and still are a little impatient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 And to think it used to sound before every launch! Until the locals fussed about that, and who can blame them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigacoaster2k Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I always get there early enough to hear that horn. I even heard it on opening day. I thought it was just a fun announcement that the first train of the day was going up on the park's newest coaster, to get people excited.

violakat03 Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought Ka's horn sounds the same. I had just gotten out of my car when I heard Ka's and I was like "Diamondback?!" I can definitely imagine it got very annoying very fast when it sounded for each launch. That sucker is loud!
