What is a horn tap?

They do two short horns to acknowledge they see me taking pictures. There is a video on the GLC fb page

A crew working the Ithaca bean plant. I don't see a train here anywhere. Kinda looks like they pulled in nose first with just cars for Zeeland. 3 units, one thats half gray and 391 if that gives a clue what train it is 1830
Re: GLC Train Location Updates - November 2023
Half gray would be 393 with the 10th anniversary paint.

OSTN clear PITT with GLC 383 and 382 leading southbound. Has a good sized train today.
Has a nice C&O ballast hopper on the rear with the full logos intact.

OSTN-6 Southbound 383,382 16:42 at Zukey lake/Lakeland
Re: GLC Train Location Updates - November 2023
21:57 - GLC horns heard near Chilson, presumably northbound.
00:03 - Northbound thru Catrell Dr. in Howell with 382 and 383 leading 94 cars after dropping 27 cars for CSX.
They must've left the 27 cars on their main going south earlier as when I arrived they were pushing them into the transfer. They backed onto the CSX main, took the cut past the diamond, and backed it into the EE of the siding. After returning to their track, they backed 70 carlengths south onto their northbound train.

There's a crew out here switching the Ithaca bean plant but I don't see a train. They may have come with just Zeeland cars again. 0720

Re: GLC Train Location Updates - November 2023
OSTN-8 Southbound 391,382 12:55 at Zukey lake/Lakeland. The horn(and bell) on 391 sounds very different then what Iโm used to on the other locomotives.
