This was a Nathan 6 chime off of the #153 at the Gold Coast Museum in Miami. It is not an FEC whistle, but they (USSC) have a second whistle (5 chime) from us that will likely be used in April during the FEC Charter. Whistle bowl was a little too small with the Nathan bell and it was underblowing for most of the morning and into the afternoon. They were preparing to run a swap with the 611 Hancock 3 chime
@@railfanningamerica868 Don't let the 'perfect sounding whistle' towards the end fool you! That is not 153's whistle; rather a Southern Pacific 6-Chime.

Either way, it is good to hear new whistles on 148 every once and a while. Though I'm just waiting for the CB&Q 5 chime to make a reappearance
