I know for the ones in all my buddy's jeeps, (real train horns) we installed air compressors for. Loud as hell lol. Sure beats our fiat 500 horns...

I have a set of air/train horns on my Jeep. I spent a little more on the jk specific kit by Klein but I think it was worth it. Install was pretty simple, I had a question with wiring and their customer service were more than helpful.

They're lo-o-o-ong, not easy to mount in a Jeep.
There are other very loud options you may want to consider.
A Stebel 'Nautilus Compact Truck Air Horn', 300 Hz, would make people jump out of their skins, if needed... you may take my word for it...
Now... add another Stebel, the 'Wolo', together with the Nautilus... you don't want someone do this to you...
You can hear a few --
Producten (GB) | Valk Motive
BTW. the lower the sound, the more it penetrates though closed windows of another vehicle and background music or noise, and the farther distance it keeps its volume.
This, TM80/2 BLACK, though electric, is very loud:
STEBELŽ ITALIA - Trombe Horns
The WOLO Model 619, BIG BAD MAX air horn is a beast.
So is the - Howard's Horns Home Page, motorcycle air horns, battery cables
A fun one, compact and easy to install, but real loud train whistle (needs a compressor) -
Audio Samples of HornBlasters Train Horns! Hear The Loudest Horns Around!
There're sound samples on most websites.
If you combine a single low sound (~300 Hz) with a loud twin-tone, they'll definitely hear ya... so no need for the complications or price involved with a train horn.
