Also, the new whistle is Crosby 5-inch diameter 3-chime, NOT a Baldwin.
I was wondering about that, since the locomotive wiki thought it was a Baldwin. I was suspecting that it wasn’t a Baldwin because it didn’t sound the same as Walter's Baldwin; it sounds closer to Roy's American. (EDIT: the wiki did say Crosby).

I do wonder whether or not this change is permanent; I’m hoping that Lilly Belle doesn’t lose her Buckeye down the line as that whistle is iconic to the railroad.

Nonsense, the locomotive wiki says Roger's new whistle is in fact a Crosby.

Here's a photo of the Baldwin whistle: https://thumbs.worthpoint.com/zoom/...-chime_1_678caf73b858982d24f921b79323235d.jpg

And here's the transitional style Crosby whistle: https://thumbs.worthpoint.com/zoom/...motive_1_abd65bee674995e6785720e855f7c8c6.jpg
