Can anyone tell me what horns were on the Seaboard B36-7 when they were in use?

Numbers 5837-5925

As new locomotives, they appear to have had Airchime K5LA's:

CSX had plenty of Leslie S-5T's floating around on other power, so it wouldn't surprise me if some B36-7's eventually got S-5T's as retrofits.

Seaboard System B36-7s were delivered with K5LA horns.
