Southern Railway Long Bell Replica Steam Whistle

 

This whistle is a remarkable full scale reproduction of a Southern Railway Long Bell three chime. These whistles were produced in the Southern Railway foundry in Lenoir City, Tennessee. They were used on passenger class 4-6-2 Pacifics and also 4-4-0 and 2-8-2 engines. These top-lever actuated whistles have very deep chambers that produce a deep rich sound which can be heard for miles on a still day. Construction is 99% red brass by weight. The only concession to materials substitution is the 3/4" inner shaft which houses the valve lever. This is constructed of stainless steel with bronze bushings to avoid rusting. No detail has been overlooked to insure that this copy is the same fine quality as the original. The casting technique used on these whistles is in fact a superior process leaving fewer casting holes and flaws than found on many originals.
