It needs a 15 yr / 1472 day inspection before it can run again. It was moved up to Maine Locomotive and Machine Works a few years back for the work to eventually be done. I think they do plan on completing the inspection and running it, but I'm not completely sure.

what air compressor setup do you use (size/psi etc), please? Do you use an extra air storage tank do get the sustained sound?
@trainern8
@trainern8 Жыл бұрын
I use a 60 gallon air compressor, no extra air tank. It works well for 5" whistles like this. I'll blow a 6" whistle well enough, but it drains the whole tank very quickly with those. Pressure wise, about 175 psi.

@@kmanningable hmm I'm not sure. I usually let it fill up all the way, then turn it off and then blow the whistle so it doesn't kick on and mess up the sound of I'm recording, so I haven't paid too much attention to CFM. The whistle moves so much air, it will be difficult for any compressor of that size to totally keep up.

In 1963, three of us sneaked onto that bridge and rode it to the top. At the time, the bridge was down more than it was up. Hid in the girders under the tracks so the controllers couldn't see us. It was a surprisingly bumpy ride. Once back down, had to stay hidden until the train passed. Afterwards, we just acted like some kids crossing. Looking back, it was a foolhardy thing to do. That bridge wasn't built for pedestrians.

We had one of these NYC 3 chimes down at my buddy’s farm on one of his steam tractors… I did some research to find these were also found on steam locomotives as well as electric ones. The one we used sounded amazing on steam and we only had it at like 75-80 psi.

In my opinion I think that the peanut chime or 3 chime fit 7470 the best as they’re high pitched. As much as I like the 6 chime I just don’t think it suits her.
