What are favorite sounds that various roller coasters make?

Just to name a few for me...
-Arrow and old wooden coaster lift hills
-B&M roars
-Morgan and GCI brakes
-The clicking noise older B&Ms make leaving the station
-Top Thrill Dragster's launch cable
-Arrows and B&Ms disengaging the lift

That's a joke right? What complaint could they have possibly given?

They should only be allowed to complain about the coaster being built too far away from them.

This may be a tad off topic, but I'm curious as to what NoLimits 1/2 users feel about the computer-generated coaster sound! Realistic or artificial?

:) My biggest question. :)

NEW INTAMIN LSM ROAR <3

also that slight jingling Gravity Group coasters make on the 90* turns
Ok but how desperate you have to be to voluntarily fly from another country to go to Thorpe?

This one's easy. It's the "Intamin Fart", the sound that Intramin Prefab woodies make when they ride the upstops over the airtime hills!
