Остановка по свистку. В маленьких американских городках, где горожане живут поблизости от железнодорожного вокзала, прибытие и скорое отправление поездов отмечается свистком, который даётся или машинистом из кабины, или станционным смотрителем. Политические деятели, стремящиеся встретиться с как можно большим количеством избирателей в ходе предвыборной кампании, совершают тур (a whistle-stop tour) по своему избирательному округу, т. е. путешествуют поездом, останавливаясь на маленьких станциях, собирая публику звуком свистка, чтобы произнести речь с задней платформы последнего вагона.
