Some places pretty close you can just barely hear it and others that seem much further there is a low lying area that channels the sound right to you. It's pretty crazy. Luckily there is a small hill between our house in Savannah and the tracks at Morrisville Carpenter which knocks it down from annoying, to quaint background noise.

The best thing you can do is ask the neighbors as it's so dependent on the precise location.
Good idea Sherifftruman, I drove out and polled 4 neighbors, and they all said the noise was negligible...
