Last Steamer that i saw came thru town a couple times back 20-25 years ago as they were tryen to get something going with the excershion tours going , now one guy said that it was the loudest thing he has ever heard , well not the one that came thru town and we are on a main line from the east to the west and at that time i lived 9 houses from the tracks and other then the wheel noise and the wisel ya could hardly hear it pullen the grade . I now live over a half mile from the tracks and the diesels are deffening even up here and if the wind is out of the east or north they sound like they are comming up the drive . Let one of them unit coal trains come up the grade with 5 engines on the ft. and three in the middel and two on the back and for atleast five min. ya can't hear the tv even with suround sound .

I just love the engeneers that think that he has to do chin ups on the horn or the ones that just lay on the horn from the first crossing to the last one .
