Bill -
Fingerprinting relies on very precise matches in frequency and timing,
so won't work with the small differences between train horns that you
describe. But you might be able to detect the horns with something
like a matched filter looking for the specific harmonics of the horn
sounds - take an FFT over a fairly long window, like half a second,
then look for sharp peaks in the magnitude around the pitches of the
horn. Maybe make some test recordings and look at the spectrograms in
Audacity or similar to see if you can visually detect anything.
