I have uploaded a short soundfile where 5 U25B pick up speed after passing a crossing.

This file is only available for three weeks because then i will need the upload capacity again.

I have some GE sounds I could upload, but I have no place to put them. If anybody has some web storage space they wouldn't mind sharing, let me know.

Mmmm... love hearing those Baby Boats (or "little chuggers" or "chug-a-lugs" as they were sometimes referred to on the Maine Central).

The babyboat sounds very similar to the Alco C 415, which also had a V8 engine.

Some more Alcosounds too wanted then look here:

None of the links on that site are working. They all give "Not Found" errors.

Thanks for letting me know. I am no longer a paid member on Trainorders (where the files are hosted) I will check it out. If anyone wants a particular file I can send by e-mail.

I made a recording a little while ago of the air compressor starting up on an idling B39-8E, and I'll post the link to it as soon as I have it online.

If anyone would like me to host some of these files on my server I can do this easily. Send me a PM if you're interested.
