I was riding my bike home one night when I saw a train was coming, so I quickly set up my mics and recorded this slow train pulling out of Portland. There are lots of interesting textures and metallic sounds to be found. Recorded with AT4021's into a modified Marantz PMD661. The only editing of this file is a small fade at the start and end, a boost in volume and conversion to flac.
