@SantaFe158 posted:The choppiness between the three whistle quill levels is also rather disappointing to me. They've had some great whistles in the Legacy sound line over the years and I've never heard one with such harsh changes in pitch when going from one level to another (certainly not the haunting quill that you can get out of an 1860's era whistle).
Agreed. Certainly not one of Lionels best efforts, very "Casio keyboardish" to me.
IMO quilling or not, Lionels best sounding whistles are in the TMCC and 1st gen Legacy stuff.
