Default Train honking in Wilmington

Do the trains honk when they pass the crossings in Wilmington town center? Particularly the Amtrak as these are very penetrating.
Thank you in advance

I don't know about Wilmington but trains usually blow their horns at every crossing because there are alot of idiots that ignore the flashing lights, lowered gates, and bells going off and try and beat the train which of course is deadly if they don't make it. Maybe the trains toot maybe they don't in Wilmington. I agree living near a commuter line can be annoying with the multitude of trains passing by.

Um, Amtrak does not go through Wilmington, MA. There are commuter trains run by the MBTA which use the Lowell line.
