Whistle Notes

Good Afternoon,

I found this old link on the forum but the pictures and links appear to be dead, does anyone have any info?

A couple years ago I ran across a steam whistle website which had a breakdown by musical notes of various steam locomotive whistles. For example, a UP 5-chime whistle has the notes B-D-F#-G#-B. A Nathan 5-chime is C#-D#-F-G-A#.
Has anyone figured out the notes for a D&RGW 5-chime? Or any others? As I recall, Weyerhauser Lumber Co. #120 (2-6-6-2?) had a beautiful minor-key whistle. And does anyone remember what that website was where I got the above info? -- Ed

Thank you for any help!
