The irreverent Florida-based HornBlasters brand is announcing they're entering the locomotive industry and acquired assets related to the Air Whistles product line manufactured by Leslie Controls.
HornBlasters will now sell Circor Leslie Controls' horns for trains, including the Supertyfon RS line of locomotive horns.
Circor Leslie Controls is America's oldest locomotive horn manufacturer and one of only two companies that produce horns for trains in the US. As a state-of-the-art manufacturer, HornBlasters will pre-make horns with the goal of having them readily available for consumer purchase.
"There is important heritage with the Leslie Controls brand, and we are proud to acquire the assets of their prestigious air whistles division," HornBlasters founder and CEO Matthew Heller says in a statement. "HornBlasters plans to dominate the rail industry and blast it into the 21st century!"
