Whistle and bell upgrades for the layout

I love these ideas: Low tech and yet impressive. That whistle for what it is, has a pretty decent sound to my hearing.

Many are impressed with all the digital / circuit board effects today. And true, many of the new features are indeed impressive. But I find more enjoyment and inspiration from simple ideas like this and the creativity that goes into them.

Thank you!

These things are kind of infectious...I've noticed that throughout the day it is hard to just walk by and not pull the cord or step on the bell, haha!

Those are really neat devices you have created there. Those would be irresistible for any kids near by! They would love these things. I would probably be using them frequently myself. Hard to resist as you say. Any plans, measurements, tips about building, etc. you could post?

thanks for posting these are really good ideas!

Sure thing!  I used all of the general dimensions and construction information from this video, but played around with the pipe lengths to adjust my final pitches to D-F-G-B (low to high):
