Sounds like the compressors to me.


Almost certainly - but you'll only hear them if you're travelling in the
second or third cars of each four-car train. With the lack of motor

noise
from those trailers (power is provided from the driving cars at each

end)
the sound of the compressors is very noticeable.


Compressors are only mounted on the trailer (non-motor) cars.


That's what I said!
