What is so fascinating about the noise from diesels?
Ruined my hearing after years of working with them. But for a decent experience the faint exhaust beat of an A4 at 60 MPH with 12 coaches cannot be beaten and when they blow the whistle it must sound how the Celestial train set will when we get there to play with it. The interesting thing was that Union of South Africa was quieter than the electric thing running almost empty across the cold and murky fen the other morning.
