Lionel Walking Brakeman car - noisy?

Recently purchased the Polar Express Hero Boy Walking Brakeman Boxcar (I’m assuming the internals are unchanged from similar cars available in the past from Lionel?).

I was a bit surprised (and disappointed) in the amount of noise the motor makes when activated and the train is not running.  When the car is activated and moving, the engine chuffing dominates and the Walking Brakeman motor noise is harder to detect.  Nonetheless, while stationary, the motor makes more noise than I’d expect.  The figure moves fine otherwise.

Has anyone else experienced this?  Any ideas to help mitigate?
