A six-tone is impossible. There are only two different tones on a 73 horn.

Nice photos, I heard that 73 coming though P'boro. I was in my office doing my crossword puzzle until my next train and I heard a almightly racket, much louder then the HST's/66's when they go by. To my surprise and joy, it was 73204. Was it being used for route learning then?
