Does anyone know if this is happening this year and if so when or any details on it? I seemed to have missed the last one and would hope that does not happen again this year.

That is very well put! However I think that the whistle that was on 18 in the 90's is more 'haunting and erie' than this CNR one.... but I will say that compared to say some of the Strasburg whistles this CNR whistle is one of the best sounding out there.
