Here I regretably offer a Steam Whistle for sale.
Its an origional Roanoke.
It has a most georgus and haunting low tone. Very loud, and makes an impressive pirroet of steam when blown!
It has been used the last 10years on a steam charabang/bus, but now redundant sadly.
It doesnt need a big boiler to blow it, works just as good on air, and will get anyone out of the way!
Sound similar to a 'J' class N and W loco or Mississipi Steam Boat.
Anyone after a proper yet practical whistle for their engine or boiler should strongly concider this type, it makes beautiful music on minimal steam, and is strong in construction.
Would be a nice addition to any collection aswell.
We hope it will go to a good home where it will be used and appriciated.
