The chief difference in her first whistle (in service until 1983) and NKP 757’s whistle (off of 760) is material used. Those whistles were cast in steel, due to a wartime restriction, compared to the regular whistle made of brass.
As a musician, I'd have to disagree. Changing what the whistle is made of (brass or steel) would change the tone color, not the pitch. Pitch is created by the dimension of the chimes. From what I head on this video, there were different whistle -- or the steam pressure, possibly, caused the variation in pitch. If the whistle dimensions were exactly the same, the pitch would be the same regardless of what material was used. Still, a great video. Thanks for sharing this!
@@amtrak1214 765’s original whistle’s pretty much where the Water Level Route would get most of its dubbed audio from. It’s a beautiful whistle, and serves as the true origin whistle for K&L’s Dreyfuss Hudson
765's whistle was never changed from 1984 to current day, during her 2005 rebuild they retuned it, and then in 2011 it was retuned into in the version of the whistle she has now.
I think 765's had the same whistle on her main valve, with the exception of 2789's and 760's whistles, ever since her first return to steam. Her actual original whistle was apparently lost during her time in Lawton Park, and it's never been found, so FWRHS actually went with NKP 700's whistle, and have had it ever since. I remember having a conversation about the topic of whistles over an Instagram comment thread on one of the FWRHS' posts of 765 cruising past an old Wabash depot back in 2019 with whoever runs the official FWRHS Instagram account. Then again, I'm not even sure the current FWRHS members know for sure or not. Then again, maybe they do, but like the slight air of mystery around the whole thing.
So it’s 2022 and this video’s already outdated. Dang. Also, I recall seeing FWRHS stating on a social media post of theirs, or maybe it was a video, that there had been some consideration put into making a video about the 765’s whistle/whistles and there were a good few comments, one of which was my own, asking for the Society to please make a video like that.
Heard a Don Krofta recording of her whistle in early 1957 that sounds exactly like that first clip! I like that one! The S3 whistles had a somewhat lower pitch that i also like.
From 1980 to 1982 she had her original 6 chime whistle. From 1983 to 1993 and again in 2005 to 2009 I believe, she had a 6 chime whistle from her sister number 700. From 2009 to 2011 I think she still had the 700’s whistle but tuned different. She briefly wore her original whistle in 2010 for a trip in Michigan out of Owosso. From 2012 to 2018 she still had the 700’s whistle but tuned again, in my opinion it didn’t sound that good compared to the 90’s or after the restoration in 2005. She also wore the 760’s whistle for a short time in 2018. In 2019 and 2020 she had her original whistle back on because it sounded a lot like it did in the early eighties. I hope they can retune the 700’s whistle back to what it was in the late 80s and 90s or even what it was in 2005 to 2006. As far as the bell, she had a cast iron bell originally but in 82 it was changed to a brass bell that if I’m not mistaken belonged to Tom Stephens. The original bell was put back on from 2005 to 2014 I believe and the brass one was put back on since and has remained on the locomotive since.
@@HoboJoe-tr1tm I believe its had 3 different bells, a Steel one, another Steel one tuned differently and a third being a brass bell. I dont know what the bell has changed
Tone of the whistle does seem to be different, some made in steal some made in brass, but overall it does seem fairly similar throughout despite the changes.
Quite an unexpected reaction to have & surprising to me that no one else has had such a reaction to the end narration section. The video originally all narration, but i was unsatisfied with it so i only kept the end piece to cap it off. I wasnt intending to startle people.
I just saw a video on here with NKP 765 using whistle whistle that sounds like a N&W Hooter.. it was odd, I wonder if that will be a permanent thing. I like the 6-chime whistle for it
No. 759's own bell is still on the engine . I believe the bell it wore in the 2010s was a bell tuned to the NKP Berkshire tuning or it's a bell from a scrapped sister to 765.
765's original bell would've been one of the steel bells like she had from 2006-2013. She would've worn that in regular service as well as a brass bell in the 1950s (like the one she got in 2014). I'm guessing the bell she had when she came back in 1979 was probably never used by her on the NKP.
didnt know 765 has like 4 different whistles, including the resent 760 whistle. i only thought that 765 has 2 whistles, the one she wore in the 80's to the 1990's and then after 2006 had a new whistle to the present day
@@NickelPlatedProductions I emailed someone from the FWRHS a while back. They say it was always S-1 #700's whistle. The difference between the S-1 and 2 berks is that the S-1 whistles were made of brass and the 2s were made of cast iron, thus the difference in tone. 700's whistle has simply been re-tuned and maintained. That's why it sounds different.

The 6 chime was also used on the New York Central Dreyfuss Hudson Locomotive
That first Nathan 6 Chime is her true voice
The first clip with the locomotive at speed with the Mars light was the 700’s whistle but the second was her original whistle.
What happened to her original whistle, why haven’t they used it since then
It's a beautiful whistle
@@PittsburghAndLakeErie9405 probably was stoled
@@SuperFoxyRailwayProduction6702Vandalized?
0:27 NKP 765’s original whistle from 1944-1983 sounds like PM 1225’s 2009 whistle

Who cares..
They all sound phenomenal!
Better than horns anyway.
Nickel Plate 765 and Southern Pacific 4449 has one thing in common. Both went through various whistle changes
The SP&S 700's whistle is different in that the one it used starting in 1990 has never changed.
K&L Trainz used the Nathan 6-Chime high-pitched whistle (1984-1993) on their model of 765.
yah its my favorite version of 765's whistle
FWRHS has retuned the 765's whistle for 2019. It sounds like a cross between the whistle's 2005 tuning and the 760's whistle.
1:35 the best sounding whistle that Nickel Plate Road ever made dressed up as another engine
It also appear in the model of the NYC Niágara in K&L Trainz

Nickel Plate Road 765’s second bell (1982-1993) and its third bell at a deeper pitch (2014-present) sound very similar.
it might be the same bell , but i could be wrong
Not the same
One of the bells I 🤔 was from sister 779. Again not 100
its third bell and second whistle are my favorite
0:00 best whistle!
0:14 nyc hudson is the best choice for me to have
I heard somewhere that its lower pitched bell in the 90s was from a GG1
interesting
Definitely an ex-PRR bell, no idea what it is from.
You heard correctly.
Here's a video of a bell off a GG1: th-cam.com/video/IGFCTuCVReM/w-d-xo.html

That is from Extra 765 West made by Hopewell Productions in 1980
What is 765 current whistle
Apparently her second bell was from none other than NKP 779 but someone correct me on that if I’m wrong.
Berk Shire engines always have good whistles

That hooter whistle is from a video of her in 1984, doubleheading with NW J 611. But as far as I know, there's only one video featuring it.
765 wore PRR 3 chimes from a M1, Q2 And a K4 x 2
Nice video
thanks

Nickel Plate 765 the early years from Greg Scholl Video Productions.
Is it's original Nathan still around? It sounds very much like the current whistle to me
As far as I know its original bell is still around I believe that the FWRHS has 765s 80s and 90s whistle and they may also have its original whistle
Nickel Plated Productions ok thank you
@@MPT_Productions your welcome
when the bell rings, the bell doesn't actually move. is it manual or is it electric because i don't see the bell moving when it rings
Its bell is hammer rung
@@NickelPlatedProductions oh ok
I believe steam locomotive bells of this style are rung pneumatically by compressed air
wooow!!
NKP 765 just had a new whistle, NKP 760's whsitle.
Who's video is at 2:05 ?
Reason why I'm Asking is because that whistle clip was used for a gmod sound
0:37
The original nathan 5 chime sounds like a new York central Hudson whistle
That’s actually the original 6 chime whistle. The 5 chime wasn’t featured in this video.
NYC Hudsons didn't sound like PM 1225 or NKP 765, at least in the videos it doesn't sound like it

BTW NKP 765 and PM 1225 was similar locomotives, am i right?
They are built to the same standards since both engines were built by Lima
I think you forgot her 1991 whistle, which sounds like 611’s whistle
bro went to high speed with that whistle💀💀
Should’ve put 2018- 760 guest whistle
