    I like that the German steam trains aren't babied and simply just museum pieces, but rather used quite often.

    I live in Leipzig and i used to hear such a whistle sometimes (i think it was from the BR52-which currently stands at our main station-doing a museum ride or something) it was a beautiful sound. Sadly i havent heard that sound for years now. I dont know if they just stopped to do those museum rides or if some idiots complained about it being too noisy so they were forced to not whistle anymore

      They don't whistle at crossings, like American locomotives do. That's one thing I know. I'm not sure about whistle signals, though.

    • @pauljoseph9710
      @pauljoseph9710 Před 4 lety +6

      I think so
      At a Railway Crossing Traindrivers usually have to whistle about 2 to 3 seconds.
      I mean thats the rule.
      Normally Traindrivers whistle about 1 to 1.5 Seconds😉🤷‍♂️

    • @Colin92012
      @Colin92012 Před 4 lety +4

      The locomotives are using their whistle to warn car drivers. The train drivers flute at depart and at a rail crossing, and not all the videos are in Germany some are in the neteherlands at a museum train what have much German locomotives.

    It seems that America is one of if not the only nation that extensively used multi-chime whistles on its locomotives. Germany and the U.K. opted for almost exclusively single chime whistles. Is there a reason for this, or was America just special?

    • @redhen334
      @redhen334 Před 2 lety +4

      Heaps of other countries used multi-chime whistles, some Asian countries have them (Japan and China are good examples) and so does my home country, Australia. I’m sure there’s plenty of other countries I haven’t looked into yet that have multi-chime whistles on their locomotives.
