Just to get this straight, these aren't my trains. They're Steve Thomas' - I'm merely the host.
I agree that trains would be better with a proper sound set all recorded from the real thing, but people should appreciate that this isn't always possible. At the end of the day, we don't all have connections with drivers who are willing to let us record in their cabs. The likes of Martin Corbett do, as he is a driver on all the locos he has made. Zane Saxton was a Conductor on the units he has made. John Owen was a Conductor for GNER so could record in-cab sounds easily. The list goes on.
I shall upload a large 57/3 cab-shot later tonight to show you how it ISN'T hand drawn. Infact, none of the trains I have ever produced have been hand-drawn (apart from my earlier ones which I no longer host). I will also try to do a sound clip, which you can comment on, and if you want, help me improve it.
That's quite an explanation - And it's good.
I know we don't all have contacts in the railway industry, but I suppose it does help.
I look forward to the 57 Clip/Picture.
