This is only semi related, but what causes the horrible creaking noise on the Type 7s? Before overhaul, all of the Type 7s made that noise. The noise has been absent from the overhauled cars so I assumed it had something to do with the trucks (which appear to be replaced during overhaul). Tonight, I was on 3618 andwhich exhibited that horrible creaking noise from the trailing truck. It was the trailing car. B end. 3618 appears to be an overhauled car considering that it had the black seats, black floor panels, and the red LED lights at the stairs at the doors.
I am now on 3606, A end leading the train. The front truck seems to be exhibiting wheelslip when starting up from a stop, and only the front truck slips. I wonder why?
