Yes. 'Train whistle' is a compound noun, which means that both 'train' and 'whistle' are nouns individually but here they work together. The word 'train' is applied to 'whistle' in the place of an adjective, that is, a word that describes the type of whistle.

But have you ever heard a wolf whistle?

Many compound nouns eventually run together, like handbook or cupboard, and maybe one day, wolfwhistle.
