I don't know how I missed this thread but....
I heard the MYH G scale G1 at a train show a few years ago and it's accurate. Gear growl, Motor noises, Bells horn, coupling and uncoupling all either extremely close to accurate or perfect as much as I can remember thaqt is
I could sit at my house (3 blocks from the NEC) and tell when a GG1 went by. I could also tell if it was a doubleheader by the noise. I've seen them from about 20 ft away at our local train station. They were always on the inside (freight) rails. I could tell by the motor's tones and the sound weather it was a GG1 or not before they came around the curve a 1/4 mile away. Just from the sound resonating along the rails.
