Dedicated to railway sound
Railwaysounds is a home for recordings, mostly
from the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. Many are of steam locos but historic
diesels are featured.The recordings were made in two time periods - in the mid 1980s on the NYMR, and from 2004 onwards on the NYMR and other lines. 'Vintage' recordings from the NYMR have their own page featuring several locos not present on the line today, or no longer in operation.
Latest additions:

Recordings from the NYMR in 2011.
The recordings can be played from the browser window or downloaded. Many of the recordings begin and end with a train in the distance, so the tracks may seem inaudible at start and end if you play them only through PC speakers. The best listening is with headphones, but be careful not to damage your hearing - passing locos can be very loud.
