A reader seeks a certain noise report for the train station area....

Response: It is believed, from the description provided, that reader wants this report from 2024---we have had requests for it before: A technical Environmental Monitoring Report for Croton Point confirmed that diesel engines produce frequency peaks between 20 Hz and 100 Hz, with elevated noise levels noted during nighttime yard activity.
