Running the Baldwin 4-4-0

[Remington1875]

In my opinion, the sharp whistle is the most charming feature on that locomotive.

It's great to see the old girl still running. It's such a classic design and so wonderfully done, she's a true treasure.

Sure, since it's built to scale. To get a deep whistle tone, you need a HUGE whistle...

[augpeh]

ah yes the peanut whistle

You could do like walt disney did to get his whistle to sound right...and flip it up side down and make it go through the boiler. Not sure how they did it, but it sounded good from what Ive heard.

In fact, I've done that on my 0-6-0, and on the upcoming 4-6-0...

[318Captain]

NICE! would LOVE to here it.

It runs on propane gas. The first (green) car contains a gas tank.

[Finnishlivesteam]

Yes, so to speak... A little different from an ordinary tabletop layout! ;-)

Geez your locos are fast, how do you not fall off?

[Finnishlivesteam]

I once fell off the tender seat, resulting in a tender seat!
