Something about those 80-inch drive-wheeled Northerns that captures the subconscious feeling of hugeness that somehow eludes even the larger articulated locomotives like 4014 and the Yellowstones.

Really sad the whistle got junked. It sounded nice in the 80s. Very unfortunate it wasn't able to be repaired

Imagine if Rizzoli makes a replica reading 6 for 489
@EngineerDaylight2 ай бұрын
Rizzoli products don't sound as good. They use fabricated steel on a lot of their whistles, which really messes up the sound. Cast Brass is what they need to do if they want the authentic sound

Oh that’s why I like British trains there whistles are so peaceful American whistles are so loud for no reason
@TheSteamGuy51255 ай бұрын
I mean British whistles are still pretty loud just like American whistles, they're hooter whistles that's all they are, it's just that they don't have that mean aggressive tone like American whistles do and we also have whistles that sound smooth and not as aggressive like hooters and 3 chimes. I mean I the British whistles don't get me wrong, it's just that the 5 and 6 chimers that we made back then have a much more aggressive mean tone that I really like.

Fun fact: The Whistle was also heard on 484 in the movie “Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade” in 1989. When the train first appears as River Phoenix is racing towards it on the horse, 484 blows the whistle.

I get what you mean. Could have been a bit better but I still really like it, remember watching it a lot as a kid. Definitely love that they had the C&TS included in the movie.

But with those engines they make those whistles sound at their full potential with a high blowing rate, but for some reason these locomotives make this whistle sound deeper and with a medium blowing rate at the same time

@@TheSteamGuy5125 What makes you think it cant be from one of the two crusader engines? Its not any different in its manufacture than any of the others, it was just equipped on a Crusader engine. Reading made enough to equip their 4-6-2's with them and that's it, so in the end they all came from a G class of some kind.
