A photo of a steam tractor sitting idle, while blowing it's whistle. (Note : It had a Lunkenheimer 3 chime whistle mounted on it at one point, as shown in the photo above.)
A photo of Magma Arizona Railroad steam locomotive #5, pulling a small freight train. (Note : It also had a Lunkenheimer 3 chime on it, during its career.)
This sound effect can be found in 20th Century Fox Sound Effects Library, which was made by Sound Ideas. The whistle that is heard in this sound effect is a Lunkenheimer Company 6 inch 3 chime steam whistle. The whistles of Pennsylvania Railroad #7002 and Durango & Silverton #476 sound similar to this, but it's most likely that it was recorded from Magma Arizona #5.
