Label: Hungaroton, Cat#: SLPX 19213.
Genre: Field Recordings.

This one is a 24-bit transcription of an LP on Hungaroton records (SLPX 19213), featuring sublime recordings of Hungarian steam locomotives. These are by far the best recordings I have ever heard of steam locomotives, and includes the sounds of the steam engines themselves, together with the clanking and squealing of metal on metal, birds, dogs, insects, and other ambient sounds. 

The LP is an excellent pressing in excellent condition, with negligible surface noise or tracking distortion. Includes file with scans of the booklet that came with the LP, including images of all of the locomotives recorded, descriptions of their manufacturing history, and in some cases descriptions of the activities recorded.
