Just watching the old VECTIS units (the original standard stock) on the IOW brought back a memory from when I was a boy traveling on the GE. The VECTIS units, and something I used to travel on, would make a series of knocking / clunking noises under acceleration, I would guess some sort of gearing. I can't remember the 302's, 307's and so on making this noise as I travelled on those for many years, I only remember it because I would have been very young, and whatever it was used to upset me! What is that noise, and what units would have had these motors? I'm thinking 306's are likely, possibly 305s?
