Thirty years later, she's still going strong

[@chrisharmon]

She looked elegant with the ET&WNC lettering. Smashed whistle sounded rough

Great video!

[@Billycarjoy2009]

That is actually 12's original whistle.

[@eastcoastrailchasers7777]

Great vid :-)

[@ncrailfan]

Ah, ​the smashed whistle days!

[@EDWARDSAful]

JF video photo that whistle is damaged?

[@mattdotsonrailfanproductio266]

Yes, it had been dented and was also just worn out, because it is the original whistle it wore after all.

[@mattdotsonrailfanproductio266]

What was wrong with 12s whistle?

[@SPS700TheE1]

it hit roof of shed causing it to sound like a grand trunk northern 5 or 6 chime

[@alexfarrell5533]

When did they fix the whistle?

[@Billycarjoy2009]

They likely fixed 12s whistle in 1999 during her overhaul

[@colecamclay]

If the whistle was broken, then I wouldn't have blown it.

[@mattdotsonrailfanproductio266]

The Clayton & Cameron Show I think the whistle was just worn out, it was its original 1917 Baldwin 3 chime after all lol. 83 years is a lot of use for a whistle lol

[@justahillbilly7777]

@@mattdotsonrailfanproductio266 It wasn't worn out, it was damaged. It had hit the roof of a shed causing it to sound the way that it did. Thankfully said damage was repaired.
