Very cool, Tony. The first train set I ever had was the Sears Chattanooga set (Mom worked at the catalog desk here in KC at the store at 95th and Metcalf). That whistle came with the set, and I'll never forget wiring it up and letting it rip. Fantastic that you capture the asthmatic wheeze you get if you hold it down too long!
When I came back to the hobby as an adult, rebuilding that set was the first thing I did, and how I got introduced to Ebay. I remember being shocked at how many of them where available in auction listings!! I was sure it was going to be impossible to find.
These videos are awesome.
