Of the more modern locos I think the 57/3's sound like they mean business especially when working hard on the "Chirk Logs"  |

I see and hear what you mean !
The body of a 47, a reworked class 56 alternator and a GM engine.
No wonder they are knicknamed thunderbirds they sound like jet aircraft.
Have to say though i prefer the original gravilly sound of the sulzer.
Where's the clag ? These GM engines seem better for the environment.
