The only encounter I ever had with the exC&O's(S-1a's) were with my
grandfather Cawley at Elmore when one of those came over and took us off  of
the"Cab Track "and put us on the rear end of the Hill Run to Clarks Gap.
However, since we were in the Elmore Yard. He of course didn't have to blow
the whistle for any reason so I don't remember hearing it. Ken Tanner

 Based on photos in Bud Jeffries' book, N&W Giant of Steam, the S1's while
on C&O had a relatively short-belled single note whistle.? After being put
in service on N&W, the ex-C&O switchers have the standard N&W long bell
freight whistle.? The S1a's were built with the standard N&W freight
whistle.? This seems to be relatively consistent, again based on the
photos.? The difference in length is very apparent.

 I don't know. I have some recordings of 0-8-0's switching the Roanoke
passenger station but naturally, no whistle use. I vaguely remember someone
saying they were different than the hooters used on the larger steamers and
smaller engine whistles like on 475. I was "talking" along time ago with a
C&O fan and he said the S-1a used a copy of the S-1 whistle from the C&O.
Supposedly a bit more appealing than those used on most M's.

The S-1as used hooters like the standard freight engines.  I had one for a
few years, never blew it . . .

I seem to remember some discussion once about the whistles used on the S-1a
class. Does anyone remember what it sounded like?

As I recall seeing a Sunset K-3 a zillion years ago, it had a 16,000 gallon
job which is what the real ones were built with.

What is the tender used behind the K-3 engines as represented by the HO

They used the standard N&W whistle same as all N&W locomotives S1 use the
same thing .never use a C&O whistle.  of course then there was the Hancocks
on Passenger power
