If it happens again, maybe try reuploading it with a song with so many swear words that it would overwhelm UA-cam Kids' attempts to even mark your video as "for kids". I did it with a Thomas meme I made using a song from South Park: Bigger Longer and Uncut, and it worked.
The director, Robert Zemeckis, had some experience with Sierra #3 when he worked on Back to the Future Part 3, so either he used it as a fun reference, just liked the whistle more, or if he did compare it to 1225’s whistle, thought it sounded more authoritative for the Polar Express he wanted to adapt. I think that last one is an important distinction, ‘cause, y’know, as much as everyone likes to label 1225 as the “Real Polar Express” it was really only just used as a basis for the train Zemeckis wanted to portray. For all intents and purposes, 1225 and the Polar Express shown in the movie are 2 separate entities.
Could it be that the "I've wanted to do that my whole life!" Line could have also been a reference from when he worked for Back to the Future 3? Doc Brown also says the same thing when he blows Sierra Railway 3's whistle.
That first whistle didn't need to be edited, as it's actually the Pere Marquette 1225 whistle. All other whistles heard throughout the film would come from Sierra No. 3!
Hey guys, for some reason, UA-cam keeps disabling comments on this this video. It's not me.
Maybe because the movie thats the reason

I largely, agree with him, 1225's whistle is more built for long barks, a harsher worker's yell, Sierra #3 works both for short and long.

3:14.
Epic shot and place to put a whistle sound! Most epic one of the video
I’ve been waiting to see something like this for a long time. Longer enough for much everything needed, and more professionally than the original
Merry Christmas!

Really? Show me that I mistook that for first one for not being 1225’s, because it doesn’t sound anything like a PM engine to me
I thought that whistle was a 6 chime whistle, like on GTW 6325.
That Definitely Needed To Be Edited. That Whistle Was From 3751.
The first whistle is really from an SP 6 chime flat top.
@@harrisonofcolorado8886 Yeah, it is a 6 chime.
Honestly I think it sounds just as good with the actual whistle.
Sierra Railway number 3 has a Lima 5 inch 5 chime whistle.
I love this but Sierra Railway 3 is the best whistle for the Polar Express
this is pretty cool
Yesssss finally it's so good
Wow u were right
Wait for it! At 3:07
I think I can understand why they decided to go with the Sierra No. 3 whistle since it actually sounds magical as it screams, "Christmas!"
