Stereo mic is pointed 45-degrees to the left, the direction of the oncoming trains. Begins with ambient sounds, including birds and a nearby idling diesel locomotive engine to the right. A retaining wall just beyond the heavy rail tracks intensifies the sound of the Amtrak train. The light rail track, Atlanta's MARTA system, is elevated and without such a wall.
