It's any even number. Three is weird. One is psychotic.

12
RoncoFoodDehydrator
First, there is no wrong answer. Second, keep your kid away from that crazy lady! 1 chugga seems so very wrong
jellyseinfeld
I am bothered by the short frequency choo choos being argued here. There should be at least 8 chuggas.
BrotherEstapol
I roll with 12. (3 sets of 4)
MeanWinchester
I don't know why, but I've always been an 8 man myself
NickyDee
same! i naturally do 8 chuggas then 2 x choo choo's
Subloc
There are dozens of us, dozens!
baaaashy
Borderlands settled this - it’s 4
SarcasticJack
You fuckers are simple. "Chugga chugga, chugga chugga. Choo choo!" Learn you a thang. Respecc your elders. Its 4 baby!
TotallySaneScientist
It depends how far you are going to your destination, obviously.\
PuraVidaMN
It’s 8, you monsters.
UranusSpelunker
Correct answer is π
GoBiggsOrGoHome61
Chugga choo choo? The fuck is that?
Lunardenizen
And the lord sayeth let there be at least two chuggas per choo for every man. But at his behest five chuggas is a vanity no man shall endure

12
lunatic242
4 for me!
Aurumai
It's a rhythmic thing, I think. So any multiple of 4 chuggahs should sound pretty natural. Unless you're a prog kind of person.
BrewmasterDan
Multiple of 6
sta2squo
Idk, I've always done 12. I think the build up makes little kids and babies laugh more.
CSlice06
Idk why either, but 12 is for some reason the correct amount that I’ve always done and that does seem right.
dannoll
Yes, 12 is the exact number I counted out too. It’s like a little song with a build up, that’s how I’ve always done it.
parabolic000
you are correct sir.
tippy25
I've just counted this for the first time in my life and came up with 12. I've also found that 8 is also acceptable, but not ideal.
Jtwgeek
6
TheSpeakerOfTheHouse
It's definitely 4.
LucaScorpion
Pretty sure it's 6
pyrokiller47
That's what I thought too
BrewmasterDan
Yes someone with some class
BubbaRunski
theSLF
I came to make sure this was here
GarmBlack
Nah, I agree with you. 1 and 2 is dumb. 4 is correct.
WaterUnderTheRocketAppliances
Nah, it's definitely 42
psych0bunneh
Also CHUGGA chugga, CHUGGA chugga CHOO CHOOOOOOO if we wanna get real specific
Qualtagh
SumptuousMeat
ThatsProbablyInMyBag
You are correct sir
PuffDaCat
It's music: 1 chugga is 3/4; 2 chuggas is 4/4 and 4 chuggas is 6/8. 2 chuggas is more pleasing to me
MrBlankMan
4 all the way!
notsosilentwolf2433
It's 8. Double 4 chugas and then a choo choo
IFavouriteEveryPostISee
It's eight! Four doesn't build up the anticipation enough!
ryjo12
I counted the chuggas with my fingers. Yes 4 is correct.
meme2theextreme
As musician, this makes the most sense. Like the Batman theme song.
TwoBadMiloshDead
Now I'm singing it in my head as a batman song, but I need 8 chuggas before choo choo.
vengaboy420
12
BrotherEstapol
I scrolled down too far to find this. You have allayed my fears.
zappyguy
Definitely no less than 4 in my opinion.
TheCowSaysMoooo
it's 8
notsosilentwolf2433
Exactly!
SonOfKazar
Double chugga then chew.
teddybonkerrs
This is the only correct answer
Crawmak
Like the Batman theme song
AlexanderElcazorro
Clearly, you're not doing it with any joy at all if you do less than 8.
onewalkerkid
This
groovyTraveler
You get me lol
smirkinchicken
8. Make Chugga Eight Again!
Srcsqwrn
I usually do 12
TheLookAndFeelMUSIC
Only if you draw out the Choo choos really long. Otherwise 12
ClaudeKenny
Agrees.

"PAYNE... I CANT.. FEEL.. MY LEGS.." and I said "BUBBA! THEY AINT THERE!" and his little bloody nubs was kicking real fast like this..

It's definitely 8. Less just feels weird.

That's only for the Bat-Train

All trains secretly pretend they are the Bat-Train.
AlmostScientist
Yup
GINGIVITISSS
Ok I thought I was a sociopath because the fight was over 1-3, not 8 lmao. Glad I've got company on this one.
conundrumqualityproducts
Definitely 8
themagiciantarotcard
This is the one true religion
YOTASOTA
I say 8 words 6 chuggas. Chugga chugga, Chugga chugga, Chugga chugga, Choo Choo

Tinisgrandpa
Me also. But I have been giving some serious thought to first eight, then groups of four. So long as it's NOT ONE. Good Lord.
AsidRayne1245
I agree! 2x 4 chugga segments sounds the best by far to follow up a choo choo with.
YepThisIsStu
Sung to the Batman theme?
Neknerp
Now that you say it... yes
AmyBethMegJo
Exactly.
SkylarkLanding
...I never realized that, but you’re 100% right.
wadeissupercool
CHUGGA chugga chugga chugga, CHUGGA chugga chugga chugga, choo choo! You can add 4 more in that pattern to build tension
LukeRDavis
THANK YOU. Exactly. This is the same as mine. I wonder why.
mistertriz
I find I am regularly doing 12. It feels right.
amipsycho
or CHUGGA chugga CHUGGA chugga CHUGGA chugga CHUGGA chugga, CHOO, CHOOOO

I like: CHUGGA chugga chugga chugga CHUGGA chugga CHUGGA chugga CHUG- CHUG- CHUG- CHUG- CHCHCHCHCHCHCHCH *bass drop*
T410N
Never heard of it that way, but I must say that steam engine is way more intense
Miniman19232
Its for uphill runs
Fuzzynubz
Exact 8, yes
iamthisguy247
It depends on your needs, but it always goes in a factor of 2 (2,4,6,8, etc). That woman with a one chugga is a pure psychopath.
MisterTrashPanda
I hate her.
Sealab2021
Yep, any multiple of two works. Just counted out 154 chuggas and it sounded right.
Ruhig
256 chugas. Really build that anticipation.
ImperfectDad
And maintain eye contact the whole time.
Tinisgrandpa
Get her away from our children.
raigne
Means the kid with 3 is as well
themagiciantarotcard
I just tried three, out loud, and OOF. It felt SO WRONG.
HedonistBeard
Well she spends her entire day around children. Takes a special kind of person.
IFavouriteEveryPostISee
Obviously you say 8 chuggas!
Rkfinecake
If you chugga until you're out of breath, the choos are going to be a sad afterthought.
Nuhlinga
ilyvinVoter
Its 14 here
Athanar
I personally find it sounds wrong if it isn't a multiple of 4.
thisiswhyicanthaveanythingnice
Yes 2, then 2 more slightly higher pitch. That’s why I think 4 is fine. Gets the point across, doesn’t take too long.
ISarabi
Slightly *higher* pitch? I do a regular "chugga" followed by a slightly lower chugga for each pair. Higher second doesn't sound right.
thisiswhyicanthaveanythingnice
You’re right. I got that mixed up.
Athanar
I find high-low-high-low equally satisfying to high-low-low-low. The second feels another, first is building speed fast.
MidoryMoon
A 'chug' is the injection of steam in a cylinder; steam engines originally had two, and would inject steam twice per revolution. So four.
fixitgrimster
Answers with science!
Suthek
Technically it's not a chugga, but a chugga-chugga. That's why 4/2x2 is a good answer. It's the minimum to establish the train's rhythm.
Tivec
KKoolW
This is not science but rather common knowledge.
LuminoZero
I'm one of today's lucky 10,000!
Traindrivingdude
Can confirm it's four
fitch79
Sauce?
Traindrivingdude
I drive locomotives for a living
fitch79
Name don't lie. ? That's good enough for me.
BossPat
I’ve always chugga’d 4 times, never knowing why until now.
Friendo2

IssacCox
I just say multiples of two because that's how a slide valve do.
BabyCarrotForScale
^ This guy chuggas
BoogiesOogie
Sorry, I downvoted you to keep your points at 420
bangbangbangbangbangbangbangban
Waiting4gooddoggo
This might be the best comment I've ever seen on here
Maevellous
But two happen at the same time. Hence its a chugga. Not a chug. With one chugga you do two steam injections.
raigne
And twice per revolution... so still a minimum of two.
Maevellous
Agreed.
monkeyfett8
Yes, for single expansion engines but not “newer” ones. More likely is the chug is hi-pressure exhaust if the last stage. Still 2x rev, tho
LiamsShadow
I mean I’m a British dude, who favours Gresley designs, so it’s a repeated 3 cylinder beat followed by the occasional long ‘ch-woooo’ for me
gozer90
Who are you who are so wise in the ways of chuggas?
IWishIWasBlank
Im a 4Chugga
Kuolo
Nerd
blau79
Finally someone agrees with me.
MintationNation
TIL
Drumlimeplate
But I thought the cylinders were injected simultaneously since the wheels r on an axel not indpendent from one side to the other
Drumlimeplate
Making it 2 chuggas
TheRealGritty
I actually do 8 chuggas in ⁴/4 time and then go choo choo.
varkrath
Me too. You certainly described it much better than i could have
luckiestnut419
dundeeisdrunk
I also do this. I think we are the correct chuggas
andsy
A man of class
hirosjimma
CHUGGA chugga chugga chugga CHUGGA chugga chugga chugga CHOO CHOOOOOO?? (I don't know music theory)
TheRealGritty
Yes. stressing the first beat. Very good.
Nichols3
The 'choo-choo' bit is the steam whistle, isn't it? So the ratio of chuggas to choo-choos would be dependent on the engineer?
Aarghzombies
HedonistBeard
Oh look, it's the usersub users on their way to another shift of clicking on selfies to see if there's boobs.

Chugga chugga!

This, all of this. It can go on for as long as people want. Build that suspense.

Malibloo
Definitely. Though some freestyling is allowed, as long as it's never under 2.
valen00
I had honestly never considered the possibility of any number of choo's other than two
