I hear the train for quite a while before it gets to my area, The horn, But mostly the rumble of the locomotives in their higher notch settings. We live along the WSOR tracks on kind of a gentle crested hill setting & to the east about a mile & a half we have a marshy low land area where they slow the train considerably. After they pass this area they throttle up with 2 to 7 locos in charge, They scream & rumble alot! Also to the west of us they slow for a bridge in town with a speed restriction of about 10mph. Then throttle up big time to climb out of town.
