    It seems that when travelling as a passenger, no matter what train or carriage I'm on, I am followed around by the same person sneezing every few seconds. This is not very realistic and is extremely annoying. Can something be done about this?

    I'm curious about that too.
    How about tweaking the audio settings a little?

    agree, once every hour or so maybe, and at much lower volume - it is annoying though when it's all the time

    Yeah, there’s a pretty nasty flu going around in TSW, I think. Hahaha

    Have you tried handing them a tissue, at least.

    Jokes aside, I believe it's part of the new ambient passenger sounds, and I do agree it gets a bit annoying after a while

    The sneeze is far too loud.

    I've been asking for the removal of this since day one of it's introduction, good luck in getting it removed!

    That's me with hayfever following you on every train. But seriously, I guess there is only one or a few short sound files playing in a loop. Also on stations you hear a ambient sound of people, but at that spot you don't see any people, it's just weird.

    It’s probably embedded in the sound loop(s) so would no doubt require a major effort from “Engineering” to remove.

    I find you hear it more on GWE remastered.

    It sounds like someone trying to sound like someone sneezing, as opposed to a genuine sneeze.
