in ordered according to the video segment you have uploaded here it starts off:
Milwaukee Original (which we believe to have a bad chime)
Santa Fe Whistle (main one used on the road)
Air Horn
Milwaukee Original
Milwaukee Original
Santa Fe (main one used on the road)

We worked very close with Lionel on this, that is why there are all 3 on the model.

Charlie,

The engine and tender are beautiful and the horn, whistles and steam sounds are great and the synchronized puffing smoke looks terrific.

Good luck and thank you for sharing your Masterpiece, with us.

Merry Christmas,

Ralph
