I just happen to have this LP. Found it used and of course its kind of "rice krispie" with scratches/pops. Bought the record for the LP cover but there is some

great train noise here mostly from the F-unit days. This video has the script to follow the train noise you hear and a very nice clean recording with no snap crackle pop.

So sit back close your eyes and turn up the volume and imagine it all in your mind.

I've often wondered why no one has made a soothing sounds alarm clock. 

It would have the sonorous beat of a 567 in low idle, (Railfan models could be made

to make different make/model engines idling).

Seein as to how fast one of those engines could entice ya into droopy eyes, they should

work real fast on a piker.

You could hear em arguing over the water cooler at the office, " I went rite to sleep with

the 1965 Baldwin VO1000 last nite, slept like a babby". "Oh Yea? Well I was asleep before

my head hit the pillow with the FM Opposed piston 12 cylinder, with the add along

air compressor noises."

Every Dog for miles around will think theres a train comin thru and stay alert for any

feline shenanigans that may or may not be going on.

I never have heard/seen a tornado closeup or otherwise. Watched countless videos of tornados and the people
on the street keep describing the noise a tornado makes "sounds like a train". A steam train or a diesel train.
What era of trains are you talking about. Is it the sound of 20 SD40-2's pulling a coal train up a 2.2% grade?
The sounds I've heard on video tape sound more like a jet engine than a train. The UP turbines made a sound
like a tornado but dint run outside of Wyoming and dont think many people ever heard them run.


 

And a cool tornado song I never heard before.
