They do that in real life and since we are modeling a real thing I would say it's a feature, not a defect. I remember when I was real young the older engineeers would still back up and put in the slack like they use to do with steam. Then they would take off forward with a sound of rolling thunder as the slack came back out. They don't do that anymore, but I can still hear it in my mind. That's what you are hearing and it's normal in the real thing and models too.
