There is a huge difference between light rail and heavy rail in terms of surface noise I find. Light rail on modern track is pretty quiet.

When light rail can go through every 2 minutes during peak hours, the difference is largely academic.

Light rail 70-80 dB Regular trains 85-100dB

It’s a logarithmic scale, which would you rather live by?

In this scenario am I a railfan or neurotypical?

I can’t be your therapist

overground is heavy rail

and the lines are heavily used by freight
