  • does it run on 0-54

  • @MrTrainfanatic Yes, I keep a database of exactly what locomotives I have, what kind they are (steam, diesel, electric), etc.

    @Bassfanatic94 A banshee was a single chime whistle, usually very shrill, hence the name.

  • That is most certainly an example of a Banshee Whistle. In fact, on the Pennsy it was called a " Banshee Screamer." Enginemen could play it between the low passenger tones up to the high pitched " scream." The single note, high pitched whistle was the standard shifter-freight whistle known as a " Peanut Whistle." Several of the enginemen that I trained under spoke favorably of the Banshee on the M's...and occasionally they showed up on an I-1.

  • Dang! Nice engine! BTW, do you know exactly how many steam engines you have? Amazing. ;)

  • another PRR classic beauty! awesome job!!

  • Cool Loco Dave! I love MTH steamers. I wish I had one like that. What is that faint squeaking noise from? Also, is that really what the banshees sounded like? I never knew M1 had them I thought they had the classic Pennsy 3 chime.
