I was wondering the same thing Cody, when I saw this post earlier. Besides the crossings I believe the only whistles east of Chama are (1) Chama River Bridge (2) Leaving the narrows for Lobato, (3) Cresco, and (4) Windy Point for Cumbres. There may be a whistle for Lobato trestle when a single engine train is crossing, but I really don't recall it. It would be a warning whistle like the Champ River bridge I suppose. Cresco is a place they rarely stop for water but its there if they need it.
