Thank you. Yeah, I’d love to hear it on the engine again. Such a sweet, almost somber sound. Many whistles are loud and commanding, and many are melancholy and mournful, but this B&M is the perfect balance of both.

A grower whistle , means it has a low tone pitch sound. All of us who chased the 425/2102 in the 1990's always referred it as a B&M grower. Len.

Joe this is awsome. Even though the weather sucked, its neat to see the footage of the engine in the rain! I find it funny with the close call in the car. I had the same thing happen to me at TVRM! Keep up the great work, I hope to get up there one of these days and film with ya!

According to Sources, this is the B&M 6 Chime From Boston and Maine P4 #3710, one of 3713's Scrapped Relatives

The reason 425 was slipping was because of the wet weather and her sanding pipe was jammed (They got it fixed after she slipped severely).

Excellent video and great production. Keep 'em coming!

The best whistle for the 425!!! I hope this whistle is on it when I chase it this fall!!!

It says in the description. "Also note the whistle #425 is wearing in this video - the Boston and Maine 6-chime steptop. This is the whistle #425wore during the Grand Opening at Steamtown in 1995. Personally I love it's mournful undertones more than any other whistle I've heard on the engine so far. "

I've heard this whistle many many times through out the 1990's, they also had that same whistle on the 02 for a few trips. and for the thumbs down up on my other post, if you don't belived that I requested the whistle, just call Tyler Glass up at R&N. I requested on October 11th. Len.

i loved the closing shot at TMQ very well done

I was filming right next to you at the Glen Onoko cut. That moron you caught in the SUV at Nesquehoning crossing is about as close as I have seen to a collision! I have seen cars get caught between gates but this was scary. Real nice video.

That's a really good whistle, and I'm not a big 6 chime guy, and you could tell the engineer thought he was gonna hit the idiot in the jeep.

It Was So Cool Seeing 425 Sliping On The Wet Tracks.

One of the most awesome steam whistles anywhere !!!

Great video! IDIOT driving the Jeep! Interesting hybrid whistle. B&M top on a Hancock Inspirator bottom. Nice, deep sound in contrast to the Reading 6-chime, itself one beautiful whistle!

Also, I think they need some gates at the crossing!

Terrific video! Beautiful engine, superb locations and lovely trees! (Oh! and what appears to be the obligatory idiot in a car at a crossing!) Apart from the rain, looked like a lot of fun! 5* Thanks for sharing.

I'd love to see this whistle back on the 425 soon

they can still go around or break through the gates in their haste.

Its like talking to a wall....... Also what the heck is a B&M grower?

No doubt the engineer inserted Chase Utley's "world champions" expletive between "you" and "idiot"! ;-) My Jeep would never try to outrun a train - I'd stop and happily watch it pass.

Someone just crossed in front of a Steam locomotive at 4:56

@wwrr98 thats an original, i'll be shocked if MD decides to replicate this one too.

Yeah it does, that was a cool shot.

Incredible video, Mr. Fusco. This is just perfect. I was wondering -- what equipment do you use? I mean - the editing and the video quality are astonishing. Thanks for uploading this, every railfan who watches this is proud! Jim

Well I'm glad I wasn't the only one that chased the homeward move. I'm glad to see you got that stupid jerk that almost got hit on tape. I was talking with Chad at Port Clinton that night, and he ask if I saw the jeep that almost got nailed. I said no, because I was waiting up at the fire truck builder. Very nice video Joe. See you at T&T next weekend. Len.

The guy who needs help in the jeep came pretty close at 4:57 from being hit with a steam engine he would of been toast....
