Built to stand out at the 2018 SEMA Show, Nicholas's 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is a rolling showcase of premium aftermarket craftsmanship. Beneath the bed, where the spare tire once resided, sits the undeniable centerpiece of this build, the Nathan AirChime K5LA Train Horn.
Salvaged from actual locomotives, these cast aluminum horns are revered for their unmistakable tone and rugged reliability. Known as the loudest and most authentic-sounding train horns available, the K5LA brings decades of railroad-tested power to the road. Each horn undergoes a full reconditioning process: stripped to bare metal, rebuilt with new internals, refinished in sleek black, and restored to its original glory.
Mounted with precision and purpose, this setup transforms Nicholas’s Silverado into a true fusion of locomotive history and truck performance. The K5LA doesn’t just announce the truck’s presence, it tells a story of heritage and bold innovation.
