🎧 1 Hour of EMD SD40-2 Idling Sounds - Relaxing Train Sounds to ease your Mind 

This brings back memories. Long waits in the siding, leaning back in the seat with the boots on the heater.

I don't know how this literally relaxes me...

Man nothing to me is more relaxing than the chug chug idle of non turbo EMD, turbo units sound awesome as well, but as someone who has been rocked to sleep by a 16-567 in a GTW GP9r waiting for customers to be ready for a switch there is nothing quite like it haha.

Love it! I ran the engine rooms of EMD powered towboats for forty one years, and there's no better "fall asleep music" than the engines at idle, with the boat gently buzzing, while you're standing by. :-)

Ive taken many naps during beans (lunch) in the middle of the night with the cab windows open for a summer breeze to this exact sound.

What a great video! I leave this on in my model railroad shop while working on my Penn Central. It is great to have it on while I work.

I can cleary hear the rocker arms hitting, without headphones. thanks for good sound quality

This is great. This would be perfect for all my model EMD SD 40-2 on my layout & train yard. You're so right this is relaxing to hear this engine idling. Beautiful sound. 🎧🙂

Good sound effects for model train layout especially for my kiwi rail locos idling on my shelf end to end layout cheers from Bruce.blenheim south island new Zealand

As long as it has a good working cab heater it’s perfect!!

SD70ACe high idle would be nice

man i never get tired if the sd40s and 45s sound i was on them back in 70s 80s just loved that unit thank you for posting this well done

ACe in notch 2 is unbeatable!

Yes, this is the content I subscribed for

Add in some air system noise and it'll be just like real life lol.

loco asmr, i cant believe it.

Where did you get this recording from?

@SearchlightSimulations is this a recording from your JR/SS SD40s or a real-life one?

Sit on your office chair and close your eyes with max volume you fee like your sleeping in a Cab kinda

What’s the noise that sounds like oooooo dudududududu ooooooo dududududu that you can hear from a distance

Doesn’t sound like sd40 more like gp38. Unless it’s the sound from inside the cab.

💯
