I saw a FB video of #746 over the weekend on Harry Henning’s O-Gauge Tips and Tricks FB group, and Lionel has recreated the postwar air-whistle on this locomotive as its primary whistle. What a cool effect for nostalgia buffs!!! The fella only ran the loco in conventional mode on his video, but we believe the regular Hancock whistle might be an alternate whistle accessible in Legacy mode, which would be ideal.
If I can find the FB video link, i’ll post it here.

Congratulations on the new engine, Pete. It's a real beauty and runs great. It's nice to hear that you got a new Lionel locomotive that was fine right out of the box.

The air whistle is nice for the #746 but having the Hancock whistle as alternate would be a bonus which I might be interested in. Ken

I asked an expert today while at the warehouse sale.

Marty, thanks for chiming in to confirm the Hancock whistle for Ken. I've been offline somewhat tending to my sales efforts at this past weekend's Allentown ATMA show. Whoa.... I'm exhausted!!! But it's a good exhausted.

Nice engine PETE!!!! Like your layout too. Ditto from me. I have enough steam power as it is so these models did not call my name but I have to admit this one is a treat to see.

But it's a good exhausted. I talked with Dave for a little bit and he confirmed the Hancock whistle. The air whistle recording was his own engine, I forget which exact one, that was used. I did ask if the air whistle was the alternate for the other Js and unfortunately it is not. LOL!
