The cadence is ignored. We have to pause our tv for almost every train and we live 3 blocks from intersection. Cannot even carry on a conversation in our living room. Ridiculous blasting @ 12:30 am. Decibel level is deafening if you're near crossing. Seems intentionally over honking by some drivers.

Too loud, too many, overly repetitive, long honks in early morning hours, increasingly excessive each year! Very noticeable!

The train sounds it's horn loudly and for extended periods of time when it does not seem to be necessary. Please help out community sleep!

We need wayside horns along Encinitas and Leucadia, especially as train frequency will increase significantly in the next years.

We are tired of the loud and excessive train horns in Leucadia. Stop honking (especially the Amtrak) after 9pm.

It would make our community - especially west of the 5 - so much nicer to have less of those noisy horns. Especially at night.

Wayward horn at intersection is all that is needed. Get it done!

Thank you! The train noise will get much worse when they finish double tracks along this route

We need quieter trains, but also need more frequent evening and weekend schedules so we can actually use the train and get off the freeway

I've live on Vulcan. The train horns are getting noticeably louder. Some train engineers are playing the horn like a musical instrument. It's getting out of control. We deserve a quiets zone just like they have in Del Mar and elsewhere.

The train is charming, great transportation and part of Encinitas. However, the increase in trains and I believe more horns are annoying. Let's follow Del Mar and quiet our city.

Amtrak and freight trains horns are far too loud. Amtrak trains pass through Leucadia going way too fast - no doubt adding to the need for the extremely loud horn. Slow them down, and turn down the volume. Use the Coaster as your model. The Coaster's speed and horn volume are perfectly within reason.

I live on 2nd st. And D st and every night when the train blows its horn,... it sounds like the train is coming through our bed room. We use the train, but they blow the horn way louder and longer then they need to. Many nights, every hr...no sleep . please fix this problem. Thank you, Jeff
