MDWhistles NYC (New York Central) 6 chime - CAST IRON BELL NOW AVAILABLE!!!

[@paulw.woodring7304]

The acoustics of the valleys that the Cass shops are near and in make most whistles sound much better than they might if heard in flatlander country. You really have to hear it in person to truly appreciate it.

[@flynnlizzy5469]

I can still hear them, lying in bed late at night in my family home along the Hudson, circa 1950s. Unfortunately I can no longer picture them in my head. IIRC, different seasons caused them to sound different, more muffled on steamy hot summer nights and just amazing sounding on clear, cold fall nights. Great memories !

[@bigharryyy03]

This was used by the K-5 Pacifics and L-4 Mohawks. The Mikados and earlier Mohawks used the 5 chime whistle, the Hudsons used a Nathan 6 chime, and the Niagaras used a Hancock long bell 3 chime.

[@AdmiralColdhead]

So the Mercury Shrouded K-5s had this. Astonishing.

[@samuelbenge524]

I thought this was the Niagara whistle. Does that mean they wore the same as UP 844 and N&W 611?

[@bigharryyy03]

@@samuelbenge524 Yes, although they hardly ever used their whistles because they also had air horns that the engineers were encouraged to use instead

[@zenith8101]

@@bigharryyy03 Didn't some of the Niagara's also carry 6 chimes? Previous footage that thankfully was caught before they went "poof" shows them with whistles that in the least *sound* like 6 chimes, not a hancock 3 chime like 611 or the other engines have.

[@jkirchman79]

I love to hear those whistles echo around the mountains of Cass. Thanks for posting this video!

[@ALVHERON]

Thanks for posting this! Even though the Hudsons themselves are gone, at least we get to hear the awesome whistle they had.

[@AdmiralColdhead]

I believe Hudsons had Nathan 6 chimes. If you wanna hear those, just listen to NKP 765

[@James-Railyard]

@@AdmiralColdhead 765 sounds different. The Hudsons sounded more like 1225, whom I believe has the same whistle. I guess different engines make the same whistle sound different.

[@danikoo582]

@@AdmiralColdhead there are some videos with the Hudsons blowing up the whistler

[@AdmiralColdhead]

@@danikoo582 Again, these videos have not been authenticated. And they may be “blowing their whistle” but the audio is silent.

Should get a whistle like that for New Hope 17

[@ThatYankeeKid]

Does the cast iron bell make any difference in sound?

[@TDDrummer2]

No offense to anybody, but why does this whistle almost sound like a leaf blower. But that echo was INSAIN!!!!!!

[@flynnlizzy5469]

Sounds like a blown speaker coil to me. Have you checked it out ? Through my speakers it sounds like music to my ears, no leaf blower here !

[@southernpacific4346]

Did the Niagaras also carry this whistle?

[@DavidSanchez-ks4ub]

southernpacific4346 The NYC Niagaras carried a Hancock 3 chime long bell whistle similar to that of the UP 844, SP 4449, N&W 611, and many others. They were the only locomotives on the New York Central to be equipped with that whistle. On an even more interesting note, they were also equipped with air horns that were used fairly often when the engine was at speed to reduce the amount of steam wasted. Not that the Niagaras had any steaming issues, which is far from the truth, but the NYC saw it fit so that's the way they had it.

[@MPT_Productions]

David Sanchez no. Niagaras did have NYC 6 Chimes. I bet some didn’t, but all the videos I have seen and from what I have read they had NYC 6 Chimes
