Thats the Everyday soundtrack of the cityrail V sets here in Sydney Australia (though not as bad they have a similer soundtrack mainly when there up to speed between Penrith and Blacktown doing 120kp/h) and boy you can feel there shot in the train to I dont think cityrail / railcorp are to concerned as the V sets are on the list to be retired within the next couple of years they were launched in the 60's

great video

however i'm not so sure if this would've been so 'rare' when the class was in actual passenger service (the old days)

Good one Howard...those wheel flats sounded bad.

Well caught, That's a long way to go just to sort out a puncture (flat tyre). It's also seems odd just to see the 2 power cars back to back as well. If you have these in model form you could now have thhis move as part of a sequenece and when the rivet counters say they didn't run like this, just show the vid !
