Thansformers themselves VERY, VERY, VERY rarely make noise.
Insulators, connections and other connecting hardware are the cause.

I'm actually in Wonder Lake. It's a Wonder it's still a Lake because
no one wants to have it dredged (but they surely want the "lake").

Sad to hear that. I used to swim in it and in 1954 I could watch the
steam engines hauling the daytime commuters to Chicago on the far side
of the lake.
Times change.
