Steam & Excursion > Whistle questionDate: 12/01/19 14:04 Whistle question Author: jcaestecker I know very little about steam whistles but after watching the vid posted by californiarails yesterday featuring Fillmore and Western #14, I couldn't help but notice that it sounds very much like ATSF 3751. Anyone know if they're the same type?

You are right its a SP six we got it from California state railroad museum about 5 years ago. Luke Posted from Android Date: 12/01/19 16:40 Re: Whistle question Author: jcaestecker Thank you gents. Sure sounds pretty.
