whistles

[NW Mailing List]

There would really be no  reason  to do it at all for the model train markers as most
Have already done it . I have been involved or provide whistles for several recording
sessions in the last few years. I did the whistle blow at VMT a couple years ago. 765 ran the hooter when on N&W rails year before last. I and others have been involved with whistle blows at Cass Railroad ever year. Next one is Aug 1 all day . All of that said There sure would be nothing wrong with having a good old fashion whistle blow at VMT someday. And no need to remove 2156's whistle as everyone will show up with an N&W hooter

It wouldn't even have to be a railroad locomotive.  If they haven't tried something similar already, this would be an excellent way to provide new, accurate recordings for sound decoders.
