Or even for back up moves. But..could the horns on the B unit be operated from the cab of an A unit?
I don't think the horns from one unit can be operated from another unit, but when they are coupled up in a consist, the horn in the A unit would loud enough to be adequate. The reason for a horn on the B unit is when it is being shuttled around the yard or engine terminal alone by a hostler.
