She's a nice locomotive, but unfortunately we had a diesel on the rear of the train so we didn't get to hear much stack talk when she was leading the train back. Though, on the way to Dillsboro, we did hear some stalk talk as the rails were wet and the diesel needed some assistance. It's one of my favorite sounds.
