It's been happening since last night. Constant train horn sound that just echoes through the hills, it sounds like a ghost train. Is there some sort of old timey train in town for something?

I think you're hearing this: the holiday express
It sort of sounds like a whining ghost train and runs every holiday season.
Since about 11 my neighbors been Killin it on the flugel horn.
They must be feelin' so good!
Choo choo motherfucker
whoa, my wife and i couldn’t tell if that was the wind or a train down by the river.
Wow I just heard that and was very curious. It’s haunting.
Thanks for posting this question, I was wondering too. It's actually been nice with the rain. I was pretending it was ships going by hooting through the fog. But that train horn (not the regular train that wakes me up at 2 am) is nice.

The zoo train has not run in years.
A horn probably.

I love the sound of the Holiday Train, its not winter without the haunting sound of the train in the night!
It's this incredibly annoying boat-ship that goes around the Willamette River around Christmas time. The horn blows about every 15 minutes (OMG it's doing it right now!!) and it's horribly annoying for the entire month until January.
I guess I live too close to the river.
Edit: I swear to God it's every 5 minutes because it just did it AGAIN!
