• Creator: N/A
• Owner: Sound Ideas (1992-present)

• First heard: Technological Threat
• Area used: Worldwide

The whistle heard is a fouled Canadian National 5 chime step-top steam whistle, once owned by Canadian National S1b class 2-8-2 Mikado steam locomotive #3254 in the 1980s. Eventually, it would get replaced by a better tuned whistle. The site where the sound effect was recorded is probably Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, Pennsylvania, as it was the place the locomotive operated at.
