Hi Guys. I just wondered if anyone changes the default tender sounds which come with the various locos? I've checked some of my locos and some use genwag sounds whilst others have specific sounds for that loco's tender.However I really can't hear any actual sound from any of the tenders - Is this typical of real life? As I've never been in a moving steam loco cab I've really no idea whether the tender produces much noise.Regards, Nick (UK)

I've only been in the cab of one operating steam loco one time in my life, and it was really loud in there; however, I distinctly recall tender sounds. Creeks, pops, sloshing, squeals from sloshplate plate, etc.
