Whoever invented that whistle understood the mission
Imagine doing a night hike along some abandoned tracks and you hear that rushing towards you. Hands down one of the best and eeriest whistles out there!
That’s just the long black train coming to take your soul:/
Yea and a ghost train comes towards you.
And when you managed to jump out off the tracks a double header of 2-8-0's! And when you look to the tender of one of the engines you see some yellow letters saying "Pennsylvania"
Imagine living in Pennsylvania between the 1910's-1950's hearing that whistle on PRR Decapods, Consolidations, and Mikados every night how chilling it must have felt hearing it.
that sounds like a ghost train no joke creepy
^^
Fr tho
and when it was so close to Halloween as well!
For some reason everytime I hear a banshee whistle, I get emotional. It sounds like a ghost of a PRR Engine calling for help
Your right it does
U finna make me cry 😭
The fact that it’s getting pulled by a diesel and the steam engine facing backwards makes it seem that way. Likes it’s trying to say: “HELP ME! I DON’T WANT TO DIE!”
Yeah it’s saying
425: HELP I DON’T WANT TO GET SCRAPPED!!!
@@brandonburnett5300 Its not though. They're taking it home to Port Clinton, and since many of the R&N stations lack the facilities to turn the steamer it gets towed backwards for the home run.
Our local train did this whistle last night, on Halloween night. It seems the further away you are, the eerier it sounds. My daughter and I stopped dead in our tracks wondering what it was. My brother is an engineer and I'd never heard that before!
The Pennsy Banshee whistle has to be one of the strangest US whistles ever but it sure brings back memories of old Pennsylvania steamers.
It was on 89
It sounds like it should’ve been put on a small British tank engine, but that’s just my opinion.
@@farflungtraveler Sounds like the whistle of a german or european Steam Loco.
And every year on the date of the accident, it runs again as a warning to others, plunging into the gap, shrieking like a lost soul.
Percy, what are you talking about?
@@importednascar it's true driver and fireman told me about it the other night ! 🤣
@@importednascar The Ghost Train, Percy's driver saw it last night.
No
@@nwsd50sproductions49 But that's not all Percy's driver told me not only that, but it was also a pretend ghost on television before it happened.
The whistle makes it so haunting
Not to mention that this was taken close to Halloween
Add a bit more echo and you have the perfect ghost train whistle for Halloween.
@@germansteamlocomotive did ya listen to the video of 89 at Strasburg Railroad it’s really good. 90 wear a reading hooter and it sounded awesome too
Never thought I'd actually like a banshee whistle. This video changed my opinion completely around.
I swear to God that in the first segment of the video, when the steamie passed by being pulled along by that diesel, it sounded as though she was crying out as to say: "LORD ABOVE, HELP ME!!! THEY'RE TAKING ME AWAY TO BE SCRAPPED!!! SAVE MEEE!!!!!!!"
This whistle gives me chills
Hi person I know from lucat
This and the Reading Single Chime Hooter can give me the chills. Most high pitched hooters can do that.
GTW 5629’s whistle, along with the Pennsy Banshees and the N&W Hooters certainly run chills up a person’s spine. Plenty of other steam locomotive whistles could also be considered creepy.
Wow very powerful whistle
Nice night train action.
Just think about it every PRR freight loco had one of these and there were many more than passenger trains. I'm sure the engineer who this whistle belongs too loves this video he always complains when he puts it on for power moves etc not enough guys record it. Anyway good job and thanks for sharing
Not just PRR, either. The LIRR was owned by the Pennsy for a long time, and a lot of our freight engines had these whistles, too. Knowing that I could've lived in a time where I could've heard this spine-chilling sound every night makes me feel greatful for the arguably more melodious horns we have now, considering I live near a crossing that sees both passenger and freight service. Though, I'd definitely prefer steam power to run the lines over the diesels and electrics we have, for sure.
@@That_One_Guy_In_A_Band When I think of PRR it includes LIRR they were pretty much one and the same once Pennsy took over less the kool two tone graphite on the smokeboxes and steamchests those LI boys did😁
@@steamgent4592 I'm glad you like the LIRR look, too. Something about it is just really handsome in my opinion. Kind of like the locomotives on the Southern Pacific, but with an East Coast flair.
@@That_One_Guy_In_A_Band Yes it was a book or magazine article by the Late Great Ron Zeil that introduced me to the LI look way back in the 80s. I think Ron had more love for it than anyone he was always writing articles and books on it. Always trying to get the Project 35 and 39 moving further along with little success. I think project 39 is now probably the longest ongoing restoration thats never been completed. They started that before I was even born and it's never run. He also penned probably the best book ever made on the Spanish American War. That has lots of steam in it too but theyre ships.
The people who drive heritage steam no doubt enjoy seeing well recorded clips of their engines on the go. It can be quite difficult to really appreciate the sights and sounds of a steam engine doing what it does best while you are on the footplate. Have to let someone else take the controls and give you a photo runby.
Give it a proper top lever like the original banshees used to have and that whistle would sound even better than it already does.
I know it might sound weird, but blown on around 180 PSI, that banshee whistle ends up sounding very similar to a whistle used on British Railways.
Actually 210psi. The 425’s operating pressure is 210psi.
That is one creepy whistle @ night
Wow! :)
1:36 And so, on every night at the time of the accident, It Runs Again! Plunging Into The Gap! SHREIKING LIKE A LOST SOUL!!!
the steam locomotive wails a long, sad cry as its dragged to hell with all its fallen brothers
Nah man the doom slayer gonna ride it through them demons
Wow it sounds like a big foot call
Well, I'm not sleeping tonight
(Puts on percy's ghostly trick/Ghost train theme)
It’s turley an marketable ghost whistle
*SCREEM* all I hear
Also the whistle sound like the train 13 whistle
Wow that was awesome , i was up there yesterday.chasing it for the time . A Beautiful engine , videos and pic dont do it justis why do they change out the whistle ? Thamks (:
Just for fun
Because it's awesome!
banshee best way to prank people!
Awesome!
Thanks for posting
Whistle of 425
Even though there was a DIESEL in front of that train.
Sounds like rotary OY
I'm pretty sure Rotary OY wears a PRR Banshee. Its part of why I like them so much.
Why was a diesel pulling her and why backwards? And does it by any chance be related to ptc or positive train control
Thats the direction she was facing, They couldn't run 425 around or turn around the train so they had to go that way
Oh
Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern is a class 3 railroad, they don't need PTC anytime soon but might need to equip it in the future. They probably put the diesel on it for visibility, its hard for a steamer's crew to see over the tender when running backwards.
@@renegadeoflife87 Class 2 actually since they own A LOT of trackage but indeed they are exempt from PTC requirements. Only reason the diesel was on was because of the way 425 was facing. They don't really like running 425 backwards especially with that auxiliary tender and at night too.
@@Thunderbolt_1000_Siren yeah you can't really see over a full tender. Sloped tenders maybe.
I wonder why she wore the whistle? And if I'm correct is the reason she's being pulled backward by diesel is since after the run she did there wasn't any turn facilities anywhere?
Whistle for nostalgia sake it was towed because the crew can't see around the tender when backing up.
@@kingofthepod5169 oh i see
Oh I thought the diesel had the whistle
:/
fucking love it
It doesnt seem like its a banshee whistle 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Why is an SD40-2 leading the train?
It’s actually a SD50. It’s leading it to be turn around. They sometimes don’t like running the 425 backwards at night
The SD50 was leading the 425 since the crew of 425 couldn't see over the tender when running backwards. Plus the 425 was facing backwards so they just pulled it behind the SD50
@@ADIX2400 Excuse me, I meant SD50…
Sounds like horn half broken
Was the whistle messed up ?
Nope
Nope. That's exactly what a PRR Banshee sounds like.
This thing has nothing on the N&W hooter.
Agreed, a prr steam screamer is a sound that Can keep you up at night, and you think a old N&W 1 chime hooter is haunting, you have not heard anything yet
this video is pee pee poo poo, it is not yes.
ah if it aint the kid, who posts these random dum bad quality train videos. keep your comments to your self
@@EastboundProductions so a Canon eos r6 is dumb bad quality? I’m literally friends with the channel owner and it was a plain joke. Keep your snotty comments to yourself buddy
@@Chasetwalkerproductions and how about next time you say it was a "joke"
@@EastboundProductions next time, don’t leave a comment saying “ah if it ain’t the kid, who posts these random dum (spell it right next time) bad quality train videos. Keep your comments to yourself”
@@EastboundProductions your videos are the videos a 10 year old puts out my videos have much effort and have had a lot of money invested into the gear for it. So go ahead and say that my content is shitty again because at that point your just telling me your a hypocrite
