Sh-Boom

That's the signpost up ahead, your next stop, the Quiet Zone.
You didn't hear it here. A quiet zone will be established for the Canadian National Railway:
Barrington is slated to take the lead among communities working to recertify a quiet zone along the Canadian National Railway corridor.
Barrington on track with other communities toward renewing Canadian National quiet zone
A quiet-zone is a stretch of rail where engine horns are silenced. This applies to all trains, including exploding bomb trains. One industry spokesman said: "We can't guarantee that you won't hear it when one of our cars explodes. But is that such a bad thing?"
