The sound of running water on the Jubilee Line

Anything else that can produce a kind of white noise sound really That's a completely different kind of sound to that described in the subject. The only thing I can think of from my days of driving those trains is the noise made by the current shoes hitting the rail. For example over a gap in the current rails, when the shoes hit the next section of the current rail, you do get a strange sound, which may sound like it's travelling down the train as each shoe hits the rail. Can't say I've ever noticed it on any other stock! maybe the 96s have different traction shoes, or the JLE may use a different type of power rail? Sorry, that's the only thing I can think of at the moment! |
