I live one block from the NS main thet runs through town. For a while I thought he trains had stopped running. Turns out I just got used to the trains' whistling and tunned it out. Including "The Mad Whistler" that blows a complete __0_ for each and every crossing during the middle of the night. There is a problem, as I heard once, that people most likely to be struck by a train live in proximity to crossings and are used to whistles. <br /> <br />I'm with every one else on this matter. They invented whistles as a warning. They invented choices in purchasing real estate so no one has to live where they don't want to. <br /> <br />As for tourists being disturbed, I think some of them may feel that the sound of an approaching train is romantic. I know of no toourist area where the frequency of train whistles is at a constant, annoying rate. <br /> <br />Mitch
