Horns? From Athearn?

Noticed this in a notice bulletin from one of my favorite online vendors. It looks like new horns are coming from Athearn:

Horns  MSRP $21.98  TTH $18.68
140-2033    Nathan P-3 (3)
140-2016    Leslie Tyfon A-200-156-CA (3)
140-2023    Leslie RSL-3L-R w/Bracket Low Profile (3)
140-2031    Nathan Air Chime K5LAR24 (3)
140-2035    Leslie S-3L-R w/Bracket Standard Profile (3)
140-2045    Nathan M5R24 (3)

Little on the pricey side, but alas noone is making the Nathan M5 (all 5 horns forward) other than Overland which are hard to find.

I think part #920063 would fit the bill via Kato.

And it looks like a different M5 horn as not all are pointing forward.

Maybe the bulletin was wrong in stating that they were N Scale. The R in the Nathan model number denotes that there are rear facing horns, I think the number following the R is the number of trumpets facing to the rear.

Interestign (if these are N scale). BLMA has several cast-brass N scale horns available too.
. . . 42 . . .

Thats a Nathan K5, not the same as the M5.
