*** A 120mm computer case fan with a high CFM
*** Some sort of a filter, maybe cut up a central AC filter
*** A housing, I am pretty good at re-purposing housings, or we have a couple metal bending tools at the space.  Maybe even make it out of acrylic (Plexiglass)
*** A power supply, just need a 12v wall wart, I might even have one in my stash of old AC->DC power converters, I know I have a 19v one.

* Place a high quality omnidirectional microphone outside the space.

* Postprocess the entire recording to pull out specific notes/tones.
* Make something cool with the recorded ambient sounds and specific train notes.
