I would like to have an alarm clock with train sounds. Where can I find it?

There are two companies I can think of that might, "Schraders" and "Historic Rails", I am sure you can Google their websites. Of course there is always E Bay.

if you have an iPhone (or perhaps any smartphone) there are Alarm Clock applications that do this. You got me to do a search and for the iPhone, iHandySoft has Alarm Clock Pro for 99 cents that will wake you to any song you have, or even a playlist. So all you need is a MP3 of a train, and then you can use that. Or Green Day. Or Mozart. Or Train. Or a train song....
Thanks to everyone for the good hints. I will visit the websites and try to find a railroad clock. I live close to mainline, but sometimes I lost the time to wake up early.
Thanks

Just because we like trains doesn't mean we all
want to be woken up at o'dark thirty hours by one, thank you very much...


A few years ago I phoned SDJeff at about 8AM one morning and blasted him with the horn from a BNSF Dash9 at track speed. I had been on it all night and told him this was his wake up call. This was 4 years before FRA Emergency Order 26 was issued.

I think it was more like 7am on a weekend morning - back when I was single 5+ years ago and stayed out late. Nothing like waking up wondering where you're at then having a horn blowing in your ears!
