Son, I've listened to jet airliners and other jet aircraft since the
early 1960s. That video had 5 different shots of trains going by that
overpass, and the farthest was about 100 meters from the train. The
noise sounded reasonably similar (including its volume) to a fighter jet
or airliner zooming overhead at about the same distance.
