If there's a lot of fancy metalwork and soldering involved (which seems pretty likely), then a lot of folks (such as myself) will have to wait for the off-the-shelf model. So count me in... :-)

Hi, all, Larry, Gail Graham and I had some exploratory discussions at Diamondhead about producing an "off-the-shelf" Bangham whistle that you could install on any locomotive, as opposed to the custom-fit one-of-a-kind units he's doing now. We are still talking about ideas, and don't even have a design for a prototype worked out yet, but we're moving along with it. So, if you can follow Larry's articles and build one yourself, you can stick it in the steam dome of your loco and have the exhaust come out of the little "whistle" there. If not, then we hope to be able to provide one you can mount in the firebox or between the frames, possibly with a little visual steam, too. best regards, -Vance- Vance Bass FH&PB Railroad Supply Co. 6933 Cherry Hills Loop NE Albuquerque, NM 87111 USA http://www.nmia.com/~vrbass/fhpb/
