Should be something. RDG once parked 0-6-0T 1251 at Reading Outer Station with a passenger chime and a long whistle cord hanging outside the cab.

You could hear that whistle all the way up at the Pagoda on Mt. Penn!

1251 still sports a six-chime to this day, but it's really tough to get any sound out of it.
Have to settle for #90 across the street.

One of my vague fantasies is having one of these horns-- but I note in doing the eBay search from your site that two of the ones that pop up are being sold specifically to placate a wife or fiance!
