The annual Foghorn sounding at Sumburgh Lighthouse, Shetland, Scotland. Brian Johnson starts up the 1951Kelvin K-Series Diesel 44hp Engines. The engines power the Alley and MacLellan compressors, which in turn, power the foghorn. Just so's you know, the horn was originally much louder at the end, but YouTube's audio algorithm turned the volume down. I tried several versions but it wasn't having it.

REAL cool! Thanks or posting this.
Aside: I thought that locomotive horn at Mercedes Benz stadium was going to make me change my britches the first time it blasted last night!
