[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by tcf511</i> <br /><br />I picked up my J tonight. I got the 611 painted as it is today. I've never heard the J's whistle but two people in our railroad club that had described it as "*** close". I would describe it as much deeper than the whistles on the light or heavy mikes. It almost sounds like a tugboat rather than a train but both of these guys claimed that was accurate. I guess I'll have to drive down to Roanoke one of these days and compare. The level of detail is great from what I can see. It ran smooth right out of the box, the sound is synchronized well and it looks good to me. I'm very pleased. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />That is good news since it is a steamboat type whistle. It is a different tone than the Union Pacific Mannings or Moore type steamboat whistles, but it is a beautiful sounding whistle that is very distinctive. <br /> <br />
