The sculpture was commissioned by TriMet and was fabricated by the Seattle-based company Fabrication Specialties, Ltd.〔 It is part of the City of Portland and Multnomah County Public Art Collection courtesy of the Regional Arts & Culture Council.〔 ''Whistlestop'' has been included in at least one published walking tour of Portland.
