Simple Definition: This is NOT THE WHISTLE! This is the Tyfon Horn! If You want the 3-bell whistle then check here! ua-cam.com/video/yjQPJQb6xMw/v-deo.html To anyone who think's this isn't the only normandie horn recording, you are wrong. Normandie had one set of Titanic-like whistles (3 bell smith hyson) which was taken off the ship after it's burning in 1942. Her whistles were used at a ceremony, and also used annually at pratt whistle blows. Her Tyfon 575 horns (queen mary-type horns) are in this video, and there is only one recording of them by the Movietone newsreel when her first voyage took place in 1936.
The sound at 33 seconds in is the true sound and true likeness of the Queen Marys whistle based on many other recordings I have heard. The air powered whistle on the QM today at long beach sounds nothing like her in service steam whistle..
Yep. This recording was made in the 1950s as part of a New York Harbor ambience recording, possibly to show off stereo recording, which was a fairly novel technology at the time!
With her traditional design, cozy interior, and arguably the most soothing horn I've ever heard, the Queen Mary feels like a country mom, whereas Normandie was like the grande dame. Anyone agree?
Indeed, apples to oranges I say. They are both truly wonderful ships which both possess their own unique charming qualities. Your analogy hits the nail on the head I think, well said.
Queen Mary definitely has a more of a traditional styled exterior similar to that of liners like Mauretania and Titanic, while Normandie has a far more of a streamlined and elegant profile. It’s just a shame Normandie never got the same chance to prove herself like the two Queens did. I think all three are absolutely gorgeous, but I personally think Normandie is the most gorgeous of all of them.
Yep. Regulations ruined it... the Great Lakes are the last holdout of good horns, it seems. Go look at James R. Barker or the steamers still down there, like Edward L. Ryerson and Alpena.
Actually now it sounds an 'A' note when on air, as opposed to a flactuation between C# and C on steam. I have a video that might interest you on my channel.
The low pitched ‘G#’ horn was actually on the middle funnel on the original Queen Mary, now on the QM2, the front most horns on the QM1 were the ones pitched slightly south of ‘D’. The horn at the beginning of the video is a replica of the original middle funnel horn. I don’t know where the original ‘D’ horns are. But although the ‘A’ horn on the QM2 was original, the newer ‘D’ horns on the QM2 are replicas.
@@Goetterdaemmerung86 yep, this is because of modern regulations. QM1’s horns sound at about 30 Hz, but modern regulations state that a new ship of QM2’s sizes can’t have horns below a maximum pitch of 55 Hz. That’s why QM2 has a two-tone sound to her horns: the replica Tyfon, tuned to a higher pitch, blows first to satisfy the lawyers. Then, the one from QM1 chimes in, to steal the show *and* the hearts of the audience!
@@matthewmastalerz2850 Yeah… Queen Mary’s horns could be heard for ten miles in any direction, under optimal conditions. No excuse for being late to work with her in the harbour: if that doesn’t get you out of bed in the morning, then it’s time to call an undertaker!
Glorious, ain’t she? The songs of steam, something everyone took for granted, now just a disgraced memory... I hope to be in Long Beach someday to see QM1 and possibly even Dubai to see QE2.
To answer that question, in my own understanding they do that as means to alert porters and tugs that they are departing to assist them in traversing the busy port
@@F0restFigure Normandie had both types. The type that still exists is funnily enough identical to what was on the Olympic class, among other ships. Also, the Tyfons are indeed called 'whistles,' if the Kockums website and any issue of 'The Shipbuilder' has any say about the term.
Correct, there is video of it on display and demonstrated live in NYC on steam. Divers retrieved the whistle, 3-bell Smith Hyson Super Whistle, same as the Olympic class and other large liners had.
The reason Queen Mary and Normandie sounded different because the model is different, Queen Mary had Kockums Tyfon 575 while Normandie has Leslie Tyfon 575, all though its made by same company but different model.
Why did I have to be born decades late? I find history interesting and the steam ships are one of them. The Queen Mary sounded much more majestic when her horns were sounded on steam, too bad ship horns sound nothing like this nowadays. But at least Queen Mary got preserved and is now a floating hotel.
In my fictional note in layla on mary. Invols Layla and her husband an there frieds and all of england travaling to germany. And on that voyege there is no ghost. And the boat was pretty and cool and food was luxeres.
@@aviationbledsoe1788 the SS America, Queen Elizabeth, United States and many other liner's in that period surprisingly had the Tyfon 575's. I wish they'll restore one of the horns to fully operate on steam one day.
These are horns, not whistles. They are closer in design to a giant airhorn (and work on the same principle) than a whistle. Normandie carried both a whistle, for docking (you can find recordings online), and a horn, heard in this video.
@@blu_e1910 I think the front. It is very big and not very sleek. I think the Normandie is more elegant and has a streamlined design, so by comparison the QM looks boxy. As you said, it looks more "mighty" than beautiful. But I also think the QM is way better than modern big ships.

@@NMCAR2006 That the horns couldn’t sound notes lower than 55 hz or a very low A.
