Horn on multiple units

[py_megapixel]

Short question
When a driver of a Multiple Unit train operates the horn control, does the horn sound only at the position where the driver is, or at all cabs in the formation, or is there some different ruIe?

On all the MUs that I've driven, electric and diesel, the horns only sound at the drivers position.

I'd be very surprised if there are any types of train which have horn levers which also sound the horn in other cabs away from the one being used there and then.

The Class 86 loco does, we found that out to much amusement when brake handling and one of our instructors was have some shut eye in the rear cab

Slightly off topic but on 73s you're able to sound the low tone horn in the other end from the cab you're driving from, using a separate button, for shunting purposes.
