I shared the talking tank cars with another group. They found it amusing also.
Here's one of the comments. Tom Hawley

Not always! Back in the 1980s when I worked for the Washington Central (WCRC),
I remember many times coupling up to a loaded tank car and watching the coupler
slack go back and forth as the load sloshed. Not saying it was a big deal. I
also remember re-railing a loaded tank car near Toppenish, WA. After rolling it
over the re-rail frog, the tank car really sloshed back and forth, I could even
hear it that time and I was in the cab with the door open. Did it sound like a
toilet? In a word.. No. ;-)
