There was a plant in our town . It was called “Kentucky Flooring” then anyway I dunno about noon but they would blow a steam whistle at quitting time . They used boilers for the dry kilns . They also had a big big stationary steam engine . Anyway when they went to replace to of the old hand fired boilers with a new water tube auto fired boiler I ended up with the whistle
