A question about J whistles

[NW Mailing List]

Others can comment if I'm off the track there, but I know of no record indicating that the J/J1's were equipped with freight whistles at any time during their service lives.  Similarly, I've seen no indication that an A was equipped with a 3-chime passenger whistle.

I was curious if any J class 4-8-4's ever carried a hooter whistle. In particular, did any of the J-1's carry the hooters prior to streamlining? Did any J's get hooters once they were bumped from passenger service in 1958? Also, did any A's ever carry a Hancock 3-chime passenger whistles? Thank you for any assistance.

Sincerely,
