Walter does have a new whistle, but it’s probably temporary. The original buckeye whistle doesn’t sound like anything is wrong, so it’s probably just getting some maintenance.
For those of you who said Walter has a new whistle, what does this whistle sound like? As an example Roy was tooting Rogers Lonergan/Lukenhimer 3 chime as a replica of his whistle was being made. Normally Roy’s whistle sounds equivalent to the riverboat’s whistle.
The new whistle is a Baldwin 5 inch 3-chime. Like you said in another comment, it gives off Tweetsie Railroad vibes. The whistle on Roy is not a replica, but the whistle it wore back in the 1970s. It still sounds similar to the Liberty Belle as it is made by the same whistle manufacturer. There is a rumor of the new whistle on Walter being permanent, as someone said that his Buckeye is now on Lilly Belle to replace the latter's whistle.
Walters whistle has been recently swapped out again. This time for a 4 inch Crosby 3 chime. Sounds equivalent to Roger’s Lonergan and a Lukenhimer 3 chime.
Ok. Now I heard it. I guess only around the holidays the train and boat whistle Jingle Bells after the Mickey Mouse March. Did you also hear the Shave and a Haircut?
I hope when I return to Disney World this January 2 trains will run again. Lilly was the only one running. Hopefully Walter or Roy will run. I need one last ride behind Roy before he is taken to the Strasburg Railroad for his overhaul. So far no word when Roger will return.
I’ll be sure to ride this when I leave for Orlando this Friday! Btw: Walter has a new whistle.

This whistle also gives off the equivalent of a B&O 3 chime.
I’m sure this is temporary. It just isn’t Walter without his Buckeye 3 chime. That was his voice.

@@pinchy08 wow, I'm gonna have to find a video of that. I'm sure eventually they will make up their minds lol.
AWESOME WHISTLING AT 7:07 ESPECIALLY THE MICKEY MOUSE MARCH AND JINGLE BELLS!!!
I did hear the Mickey Mouse March. But not Jingle Bells. I’ll have to listen closely. They did the Mickey Mouse March Twice though.
@@pinchy08 the second time around was Jingle Bells!

@@pinchy08 yes, I believe it’s long-short-short, then Shave and a Haircut, then Mickey Mouse.
