The drive is via crankshafts, similar to N&W's electrics. Not big locos, but certainly the longest lived of all the RR turbine experiments.<SPAN style="DISPLAY: inline-block" contentEditable=false></SPAN></div>

Hello <br>
<br>
Here is a real sound from a Swedish Steamturbine locomotive <br>
It is direct driven by gears as the PRy 6-8-6- turbine locomotive. <br>
<br>
Can mention 3 of those still exists today at a Museum. <br>

I know this isn't terribly helpful, but what did the Jawn Henry sound <br>
like? Any chance it might be similar to the UP turbines? If so, are <br>
there sound decoders available for them now that Athearn is making them? <br>
