People should check the ExpoLineFan page and listen to the sound test footage of a Light rail vehicle near the La Brea Station. You will have something that has not be doctored to listen to.

Something tells me that the audio pick up in this video has been distorted. The birds in the Marmion Way Segment sound unnaturally loud. Every time I have gone to visit friends in the Highland Park area I never notice the train to sound that loud.

Show me a freeway that's quieter.

It's kinda stupid that you guys are comparing an old lrv compared to the new ones. In the Gold Line part, it's obvious that there's going to be a line of caers during rush hour since its a two-lane road. In a street-running section, a train can't go faster than 35 mph, which, after the Western Station, the Expo line doesn't run on a street but at a ROW, letting it go faster. But going back to noise, the Green Line station are louder than this.
