What next? An E.U. Noise limit for coal wagons? It's a railway for crying out loud! If it's too noisy, MOVE!:rolleyes:

Fed up with 'em, 62440.:mad:

If the wagons have flats on the wheelsets then I think that they should be attended too as soon as possible.
Otherwise no excuse as they do not make that much noise.
