And how can I find out when the trains are scheduled(freight only I think)?

Can i space jazz if i play whistles and traditional irish flute. I know that to play jazz you need to learn theory and remarkable scales. But whistles and irish flute only have one scale!
Basically, like Rachel said, a penny whistle or Irish flute isn't in the final analysis chromatic - but you can play the sharps & flats in 2 octaves - it's just very difficult. For some of them you are covering 1/2 the hole with your tattle on...

Caltrain to return whistles to underneath trains
Posted by Mastermind, a resident of another community, on Sep 19, 2009 at 7:01 pm
There are two separate issues here. One is that the FRA found that the modified whistles which Caltrain has been using for the last several years were not in compliance with regulations requiring the whistles to be competent to make both long and distinguishably short sounds. The original modification job was done so cheaply and was so poorly designed that engineers were impotent to make proper whistle signals as required by law. Moving the horns back to the roof was the quick and easy denouement to the immediate compliance problem, and now they are finally going to do the modification to move the horns back below the way they SHOULD have done it the first time -- satisfying the FRA, the engineers, AND (confidently) the neighbors.
The other issue happened around the same time. The CPUC suddenly decided (out of nowhere) that Caltrain needed to start sounding the whistle at each and every assign pedestrian crossing, in effect treating them like road crossings, something which was not being done before. So now, if you live near a station which has stock crossings (many have one at each end), then even if there are no road crossings nearby you are hearing trains whistle as if there are two road crossings nearby. Annoying and needless. There are already rules in place requiring engineers to sound the whistle at stations if needed. The CPUC is going overboard by requiring 4 recognizable blasts (two long, a short, and another long) at each pedestrian crossing.
