The Western Maryland Scenic Railroad in Cumberland, Maryland, has a ex-LS&I 2-8-0 built by Baldwin in 1916. The railroad puts a total of 4 whistles on her:C&O 3 chimeChinese 5 chimeHancock 3 chimeWM 3 chimeOf the four I like the Hancock 3 chime. What's your favorite?

LOL. The hancock is my favorite whistle of ALL TIME! That whistle has the deepest, strongest, howl of a roar I've ever heard! It's a keeper!-Colin
