I have one mounted to the front of my shop as a doorbell and that sucker is loud and takes a huge amount of compressed air to blow it too. Have a triple chime, lanyard operated.I wonder if the horn on the Barker is a Kahlannberg horn?
I see they pump it so it don't scuttle itself.Went to the Art Institute of Chicago today. On the way home, stopped in traffic on I94, looked to my left at the International Port of Illinois, and noticed a ship sitting there rotting away. Zoom in for picture. Also did a quick search and found the following video with info about it. Enjoy.

I have . If you like older diesels there is a interesting museum in Manitowoc you can even tour a old WW2 sub there. If I remember correctly they have several Kahlannberg engines and a fishtug on display. They used to build ships and boats in Manitowoc/two rivers area. I also believe they still build Manitowoc cranes there.They also have a nice website if you look it up.
