Not bad...love the howling motors lol

when you record, make sure  you sit at the end of the cars above the motors so you can get a good motor recording.
i like to record on cold winter mornings since 1) no hvac unless your on a 160 lol and 2) nobody's talking in the mornings

Thanks and thats exactly where I was.But the 1st recording from 183rd to Bedford I was at the end standing up and had the camera near the door.Yesterdays recording I caught the same set it was in the C/R's position 4th car S/B and I was at the end and sitting down so that one came out better.But maybe this should be a secondary R-68.One with regular motors and 1 with a howling motor.
I also have radio recordings and an idle recording but they're too big to attach here(both under 2 MB.)

This right here is ideal R68 sounds with the howling motor. I think most of the 26xx - 27xx have howling motors because I was on a 2711 and it was howling beautifully lol

I couldn't record for long since I was saving my battery for the R1 thru 9's that day.That was the day of the Infamous Post Christmas Blizzard.I would love to record that set again.

[Danny Express]

actually the video I posted in this thread of the D Local was 2776 if you pay attention and listen.

[Pacific385]

With that being said, I'll analyze those videos, see what sounds I can get and then take a trip one day and get the rest. Other than that, this topic will be locked

Does anyone know of a good freeware mp3 splitter? or how about a wav splitter?

Use audacity, it's like audio's swiss army knife

Like Rayvon said audacity.I use it also for cutting and adjusting the volume for sounds(bve & trainz)

Great job! Much better than the current R68!  I noticed that when there is information up in the top right I can't see the speedometer which is really important to me (especially when I'm stopping!), maybe you could move it down a little! Just a suggestion!
