Duck Whistle

This sound effect is a train whistle used for the character, Duck, since 1986. This whistle sound effect that was used for Duck's whistle, like all the steam whistle sound effects from the first three series, was made using the "Whistle" preset on a Roland Jupiter 6 synthesizer, but it sounds similar to Mallard's 1985 whistle.
