Where would we find those deep thundering ship horns like say the SS United States, RMS Queen Mary (1936), and RMS Queen Elizabeth 2?

This was quite common in the days when railway companies owned ferries and cargo boats but I don't think SS2008 ships come into that category.
I'm not sure what whistle Waverley uses these days but when I first sailed on her she had a North British whistle identical to the locos of that company.

waverleys whistle is her original whistle given to her by the LNER who has her built in 1946...after having only one year with them she was then transfered to british rail...then the caladonian steam packet company...then they were brought together with david macbryane limited to get ... what is known today as CalMac or Caladonian Macbryane
