A preliminary empirical study has been made in an attempt to identify the maintenance needs of individual trains using data relating to train-generated sound. Measurements of sound pressure level were recorded within an underground section of Tyne and Wear Metro as trains were passing within a few metres of computer-controlled instrumentation. Records of each passing train were obtained and peak values of sound pressure level were identified within each record. A method of compensating for train speed was investigated. The results indicate the need for further measurements to be taken over a longer period.
