[quote] Shouldn't they be charged with noise pollution!?? [/quote] Absolutly not. The airhorns on trains serve a purpose. Engineers have to blow their horns at every grade crossing, day or night. it is a rule that they have to follow. The horns serve as a warning to people & vehicles on or near the tracks that a train is coming. It can be annoying to some people at night, but it isn't like they have a volume control for the horns so that they're quieter at night, plus the horns have to be loud so you can hear them in time to get away from the tracks. They wouldn't be very effective if they were too quiet to hear from a distance. Also, blowing their horns reduces the number of train-vehicle or train-person accidents at grade crossings. Studies have shown that in places where a city ordinance or something prohibits engineers from blowing their horns, that there is actually an increase in the number of accidents at grade crossings.

NO! It is very soothing to lie awake at night listening to it. Some times I listen to sound effects of trains. Someone snoring is very bothersome to me.
