It’s NC&St.L 576’s whistle, which is a home shop built long bell 3 chime. Very close to a Hancock in sound though, so understandable why it gets mistaken for one.
I know it was shop built, but most shop built whistles are patterned after offerings by companies that supply whistles, like Nathan and Hancock. This is no exception.
@@FanRailer Patterned yes. But this one was made specifically by the shop to slightly different dimensions, producing a slightly different sound (even though it has a hancock base its a unique whistle bell). -- source, am guy who is working on a highly accurate 3D model of the whistle for future educational use by NSPS.

I've ridden behind NKP 765 back in October 2013, She was doing 70 mph on the Wabash cannonball trip.
