Since the triplex has scrapped in 1929, I doubt any film or audio recording of the engine exist. My guess, like smd4 is a single chime. From what I have read, the thing was prone to run out of steam because of the 6 cylinders. Must have sounded like it was running at 60MPH when it was running at a crawl of 20 MPH. I bet the firemen HATED to be called to fire this engine!
