no there not, they sound like 1/2 a spoon. they also sound like there should be another notches or 2 of thrash, never anything impressive, just "put put put" or "putter putter putter"

Hmm;

92 (yup!)
91 (just listen to the great start up noise!)
Black 5s (Quite a good steam loco imo)
9/0, 9/1, 9/8 class...the shuttle locos for those of you who don't know. Great respect for something that can have every bit of it fail and still keep moving!
And finally...the A4 Pacific...stylish etc etc.

If you included units, then a 373 would definitely also be up there.

Regards

Dave

Well next time you're on the sleeper, I suggest you fork out the extra few quid to travel in a non-Cattle Class Mk3 berth. That way you'll have no reason to complain about the finest coaching stock ever built, the Mk2. ;)
