Ride Along with Nashville's Whistle

Here's a view (and a sound) you don't get everyday! To celebrate No. 576's 80th birthday, the ‪@fortwaynerailroad‬ graciously allowed us to place 576's original long bell, 3-chime whistle on Nickel Plate no. 765 during their Tri-State Excursion on Sunday August 28, 2022. The whistle was built in the Nashville shops in the 1940s and features a Hancock valve. Learn more at: www.nashvilles...

Got to see 576 on display back when I used to live in Nashville since I was born; beautiful locomotive, and very happy to know it's getting restored. Hearing the voice of that locomotive makes me very happy.

Was honored to hear that majestic whistle on 765 that day, sounded gorgeous, 10/10

576's whistle sounds authoritarian and commanding

The more I'm listening to this whistle, I'm getting more excited for 576's return.
