Very interesting, thank you. I noticed you were using soft solder, which I have had melt on occasions with my 16mm/Gauge 1 engines at 80-90psi. I'll be watching to see how it works out in Sunday !
That’s a good thought, I can’t remember what I’ve done in the past, and now I’m starting to doubt myself. I would have thought that it would be unusual for a whistle to be blown for long enough that it would melt the solder. If it does I’ll have to make another. Lol

LBSC (my hero), always used soft solder on his whistles. Good enough for me.
use a leather glove on either side of the paint and it will prevent and scratches
Nice one
Noice jinty, have you ever painted a tank engine blue, printed a face and put it on it and just called it thomas?
Hi Tom, can’t you stagger both whistles and run them under the running boards rather than just 1 whistle inside the frame!
A Jinty wouldn’t really be right with two notes. I may well move it’s location, for a number of reasons, but it will be just one note.
