Ron and All,

On Link's first N&W record, there is a band recorded on the Shenandoah line
of a Y-6b's whistle breaking into a scream. Soon after the record came out,
I contacted Mr. Link and I was told the engine on that particular band was
2173. I understand that a really skilled whistle-artist engineer could make
that high pitched scream happen when closing the valve and then jerking it open
again at just the right instant.
