Evoke the smooth sound of rail travel or the shuddering rattles of freight transportation with over 80 train sound effects.
Freight and Passenger Trains Sound Effects features over 80 sound clips of sleek commuter locomotives and cars, as well as the heavy, grumbling sound of diesel locomotives and clatter of freight rail cars.
Exterior and Interior Train Sound Clips
Exterior field recordings include trains approaching, passing, idling, and departing at a variety of speeds. The locomotives approach, idle while huffing and glugging, groan by, and depart. Freight cars highlight autoracks and tankers that squeal, grind, and wheeze while scraping the rails. Also included are ambient recordings of train yards with multiple freight trains.
The interior passenger train takes were recorded without voices so they can lay under your other tracks. The clips capture interior train movement at various speeds from first class, commuter class, and the washroom. Also included are interior doors, toilet flushes, and horns while moving.
Commuter Trains and Freight Engine Sound Effects
The passenger locomotives are the classic workhorses of the industry, such as the EMD F59-PH, MPI MP40PH-3C, GE GPA-30h, and the P42DC.
The freight recordings feature muscular horsepower from engines such as the GE AC4400CW, EMD SD40-2, GE ES44AC, GE EMD SD90 43MAC, MLW RS-10 diesel-electric power plants.
