Sounds so old like this always gives me this weird feeling.
I used it as the centerpiece of a track meant to represent the credits sequence of a "movie for your ears": https://soundcloud.com/sonic_kitchen/mountain-of-brass-pt9-the-story-of-what-happened
Awesome sound.
Sounds really wonderful and amazing!
I love rail sounds, I just recently finally gave it a start myself, was lacking a nice fuzzy windscreen for the portable until now. You mixed the contact mic perfectly that you can't really notice it and captured the track rattle amazingly. Very cinematic like.
