@@rainbowrailroadcrossing7798 Washing machine motors are, probably not 3-phase, because some kind of pulse-modulation used on single-pole motors (our Zanussi one is using carbon brushes and only 1 coil) has already increased their efficiency so much compared to the old days. When our first Zanussi (from the 80's) broke, and we had to buy something else, we were astonished seeing that new machine being capable of 1200 rpm for final rinse, as opposed to the 300rpm the old Zanussi did and we thought that was fast. That washing machine broke down once and we had it serviced, and the person who replaced a PCB in it made it run through a test program in which it would so all parts of most programs supershort, including final spin. Since it was not actually filled with laundry however, it didn't have to find out if it was balanced well enough, so it made a low, aggressive sounding humming sound and spun up stupidly fast as if listening to a big industrial 3-phase motor being started. That one eventually broke down in a different way and the manufacturer made sure that part was unrepairable (broken bearing) and we got a new one. We now have a Zanussi again, which has final spin at 1400 rpm. When there is laundry inside and the balance is good, it sometimes also does it's first check spin and when it notices nothing to be out of balance enough for it to go into final spin immediately, it makes this same low humming sound only to keep it at 400-500 rpm, and then make a screeching sound and takes off right up to 1400rpm. It's pretty impressive what single phase motors can do these days due to the technological advancements made in engine control. Elevators probably are running at three phase yes, but usually use a big reduction gearbox. As for electric bicycle motors: not sure what they use, just like washing machines, it's much easier to get a very controlled amount of power out of single-coil/single phase motors these days, and I feel a three-phase type of setup, no matter how easy it is to make three-phase out of single-phase power feels a bit overkill and unnecessarily complicated for something like an electric bicycle.

The noise is from the variable frequency drive supplying power to the electric motors. This is similar to the hum you hear from some electrical appliances. In this case, when starting from a stop, the main frequency is very low, but the "carrier" frequency is pretty high. You hear the carrier frequency. This is similar to how an AM radio works, although there, you hear the lower frequency. The VFD allows the motor to supply full torque at any speed.(yes I know that's untrue, but for most people its fine)

The drive motors use this electricity to generate around 60,000 lb-ft of torque. There is also a secondary diesel engine and generator to provide electrical power for the rest of the train. This generator is called the head-end power unit, producing between 500 and 700 kilowatts (kW) of electrical power.

@CuthbertNibbles

I don't know about the "BWAAAAAM" at 0:39, but the high pitched whine is a motor controller, likely a Variable Frequency Drive. There are a few different ways to work it out (PWM for DC, synchronous DC and asynchronous AC), but basically what you're hearing is pulses of electricity, delivered by high power semiconductors (think transistors on steroids), changing the voltage/current going through the motor. This is needed because motors draw more current at standstill than when rotating. When spinning, they act as generators and push back against the voltage supplied (back-EMF). Each motor has unique features, but most have torque-current relationships that are fairly close to linear, especially older motors, meaning the slower they spin, the more torque they produce and the more current they draw. They also tend to have peak power at 50% "no load RPM". So if your motor is producing 100Nm at peak power (half speed) drawing 100A, when locked up (not moving) it will probably draw around 200A. Since the output power is 0 (mechanical power = rpm x torque), 100% of the power will become heat. A VFD (or other motor controller) allows you to knock back the voltage delivered to the motor, so if the above values were taken at 100V, it could run a 50% duty cycle at stand-still to only push 100A through the motor, then bump up the voltage as the train gets moving to prevent melting the motor.

From Steam to semi-conductors. Seeing the motor control unit allowing a small slip is a feast of engineering.

All this in milliseconds. Humans are ingenious for good things and sadly bad things too.
