You can reopen it! Although to be fair it's a lot better since the flange greaser was put in.

From memory, ANY train going out of Retford's mainline platform onto the line towards Worksop made one HELL of a squeaking noise!!!
I've been to a large chunk of them.
The resonance in the St Pancras box is awful. Couple it with the tight curves and it makes for a horrible aural experience.
This thread is slightly unfair to stations in the North of England, South Wales and Bristol as they are the only parts of the United Kingdom with pacers.
You're quite right. Let's send one of Newton Heath's finest through St Pancreas Low Level and see what the results are.
At a risk of stating the obvious forum whipping boy, any station served by 142s....

Platform 6/7 at Cardiff Central, particularly when you get two squealy pacers pulling in at the same time. Ouch!
I wouldn't. They'd have gone there, looked at the area, seen the noise potential....
Coastway, hove. Just beside the brighton avoider tunnel. Used to be a yard. Redeveloped and flats built. Now remember the railway has been there since the year 1850ish. Residents from flats built in 2000 again ish start complaining about noise from train horns as trains enter tunnels! Eventually southern agree to stop blasting horns within certain hours (believe this has now been overturned) Again who was here first? And did potential residents consider noise when moving in? Doubt it...

My vote goes to the Bakerloo Line in several places, around Piccadilly Circus possibly the worst for the "Horrible Howl" as it is known among some users.
A 142 is one thing but a full length 225 set has a lot more wheels, or a coal train which to confound things doesnt stop.......
Cardiff Central when Pacers leave/arrive :P
If LU counts, could I suggest perhaps the Central Line at Bank?
