NewGRF running sounds continue after a train has crashed

Crashing trains with running sounds leaves the running sounds going until the crash is cleared. T load the savegame you will need UKRS and enhanced tunnels on.

That seems to be the problem of the GRF and not the game; before using running sounds, a few bits have to be checked, among them are in tunnel, in depot, stopped and crashed.

I left a message for Pikkabird just in case he wants to fix it.

If you care: Checks for crashed, tunnel, depot and manually stopped were added to OpenTTD explicitly.
It makes no sense to impose these things onto NewGRF, esp. for stuff like "crashed": What sound would you want to play anyway? "running" or "stopped"?
Same holds for tunnels and depots: NewGRF do not have to check whether the vehicle is visible in a viewport either.

Edit: Btw., if you want to look into this, the relevant codepart is vehspri.asm:1149... "vehtickproc". To play the "stopped" sound for crashed vehicles instead of the running one, replace the "test byte [edi+veh.vehstatus],3" with "test byte [edi+veh.vehstatus],0x83". To suppress any sounds for depot/tunnel/crashed/... replace some of the jumps to .nomotion with jumps to .nocyclesound
