Restoring a Non-Working Lionel Train Whistle

If there's one feature that most people associate with Lionel Trains' O and O27 gauge steam locomotives, it must be the operating whitle. When Lionel first introduced the remote-controlled operating whistle in its trains in 1935, it was absolute magic. Even today, with realistic digital sounds in many locomotives, there's something about the sound of the classic motor-driven air whistle that makes everyone feel like a kids again! Follow along as I show the parts of the Lionel whistle, how they work, how to maintain them, and how to troubleshoot and repair them when things go wrong.
