American Flyer whistle billboards

What is the difference between the American Flyer #566 , #568 and #577 whistle billboards?

Which one(s) emit a steam whistle sound?

Hi, all three are the steam whistle  type.

#566 1951-55  light green base, dark green 1954,  had the Santa FE PA with Steam loco on bridge in back ground

#568  1956, 4-8-4 steam loco on billboard

#577  before WWII, then 1946-50, four different billboards:

           Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey  TypeI die-cast frame, Type II pressed           steel

           G. Fox and Co.

            American Flyer Trains

They also made a non-illuminated version 1950  #577NL

Hope this helps.
