The main description says plastic but then goes on to say solid brass. Is this whistle plastic or metal?

One of our comptitors has been messing around with the listings and clearly knows nothing about whistles.The ACME Thunderer 560 is a plastic whistle and is similar to a metal Thunderer 58The 560 is not a large seller and is mainly used as a train guards whistleThe 560 is definately a plastic whistleWe are unqable to change the listing as this has to be done by amazonWe will advise them of this error and try to get them to make the necessary correctionRegardsIanRefkit - Whistleworld
