I think, in part, you answered your own question! :) But seriously, they quite often use the same whistles in both the RK and Premier models of the same locomotive.

call it "poetic license" LOL

[skeley1]

Both front and rear.

[Triplex5014]

Do the geared locomotives have both operating couplers or just the rear one?

[CassFan5150]

i agree fully

[david245611]

[ripjump12]

this engine has the best whistle. how come mth give the best whistle to the most expessive ones and not the railking ones

[SLSF1522]

Nice model! Most of the sounds are verry good however the whistle could use some inprovement.

C&O had ~16 shays on the roster, all retired by ca. 1923. They were used to drag coal over the mountain at Cabin Creek, WV, primarily. (This is a few miles from where I grew up.)
