more lost time - dog was sick

CSX and NS RR tracks are about 3/4 mi away, crossing 18 Mile Creek gorge, which our house is rather close to. Sometimes trains wait on the sidings. Sunday afternoon, waiting trains' air horn goes off and gets stuck ... east wind, cold air, resonant tube ... tones quite noticeable in the house. Continues for an hour and a half! I kept twisting the K3s notch control but it wouldn't work  :-) . Sure could have used noise cancelling earphones, cuz it got old after just a few minutes.
