Amo el subte, realmente disfruto cada viaje en el, en especial en los viejos vagones que hay en la línea E. Tengo muy buenos recuerdos en los subtes, la gente, las estaciones, los músicos, cada estación de subte es un mundo diferente. No hay mejor sensación que estar pensando, antes de bajar por las interminables escaleras cuales son encontradas en zonas de la ciudad que uno nunca se imaginaría, qué combinación hacer, en que estación bajarse, buscar los carteles que te guíen correctamente para así poder llegar a esa juntada tan especial o a ese destino nuevo, en un barrio totalmente desconocido. Sería mi sueño tener a toda la ciudad unida por completo bajo el suelo. Muchas gracias por el video!

[@MarcoAntonio-hw7si]

Rio cannot build more metro lines because the state of Rio de Janeiro is literally bankrupt. Until the state government pays off its debts to the Union, no major infrastructure projects will happen in Rio, and that includes new metros lines (since in Brazil, states are responsible for metro construction). Unless they get a third party to fund and build it, like they're trying with line 3 with money from PAC, an infrastructure fund project from the central goverment, which aims to fund infrastructure projects throughout Brazil, similar to Build Back Better in the US and CRRC (a chinese state railway company) to build it.

Real shame that Urquiza Line service was never fully integrated Line B. Both have third rail with slightly different voltages. There's even the direct track connection that allows for through service!

[@espaciobarra]

It could easily turn into a suburban extension of Line B with services going as far as Lynch or Coronado, with the ones starting from Lacroze going all the way to Lemos. A man can dream, though...

[@manuelpaz396]

Cómo el tren sarmiento con el subterráneo A.. en un tiempo salía el tren de Castelar desde estación Miserere...

[@MrBao-yt7bk]

It used to be somewhat integrated, but it turned out that the suburban trains would paralyze traffic while descending into the tunnels, couldn't take any more passengers since they would be packed from all the people travelling from Lemos, and the constant stop and go nature of the subway in comparison to their regular schedule really upped the maintenance hours per unit. On paper it was a good idea that failed to translate into practice.

[@zoolideo1310]

Can you please do a remake oft the Vienna Transit evolution? (U-Bahn and the S-Bahn with more details like stations). Also there are some projects after the U2×U5 project that are planned. For example the opening of a U1 branch to a new Development place or extending the S45 to Praterkai to create kind of a circle line around the city with the line S80. And there are some things that are missing from the video like the U2 extension from Schottenring to Hietzing which closed after just a few weeks and would create a circle around the city center.

Es inviable hacer hacer eso. La A ya sería imposible de abordar a la altura de Villa Luro, saldría repleta de Liniers. Lo mismo la D.

@@fabiodeluca4816 No es inviable. Inviable es pretender que una metrópolis de 16 millones de habitantes se arregle con solo seis líneas de subte que rozen los 10 km en promedio.

[@MrBao-yt7bk]

​@@JoshuaPersSí es inviable, pero porque el orden de prioridades lo tenés al revés. Estamos de acuerdo con lo de expandir las líneas actuales, pero si no construís antes nuevas líneas de desagote lo único que vas a lograr es empeorar el ya colmado sistema de subte. Aumentas la oferta sin aumentar la capacidad. Antes de ampliar la D y la A etc... se necesitan mínimo la línea F y G.

Does anyone even take line C? It's so short and there is even no plan of extending it EDIT: Just checked the map. Line C connects two railway stations together so it's kinda important. It's still weird that they don't want to extend it though.

[@JoshuaPers]

Actually line C is the most crowded line on the entire network. At the time of the construction (1934) there wasn't to much to the north neither the south of the line, and both ends of the line has closed platforms at the end of the tracks, making very tricky to expand the line.

[@katzlang]

it is physically impossible to extend it any further, as it directly connects two of the main 3 transport hubs of Buenos Aires and it's already extremely overcrowded. this is where line F would come into play, but unfortunately with the current state of the country there's been little to no progress with this project

[@valentinkrajzelman4649]

it connects with the two main train stations in the city would no sense to extend it right now, i think its more important to make the other lines actually reach the rest of the city

[@MrBao-yt7bk]

Line C is overcrowded which is why it can't be extended until its capacity is increased. It needs a new line out of Constitución to re route some of the traffic. The planned line F for example.

It is already overcrowded, connecting between two mayor train hubs (Retiro and Constitución) and the rest of the metro grid

[@JoshuaPers]

Line C conects the two majors train stations of Buenos Aires. Retiro at the north and Constitución at the south. As the Chadopyf (company who built line C) just wanted to conect those stations and at the time there wasn't too much happend to the north of Retiro and to the south of Constitución, those stations were built to close to the surface and with closed platforms at the end of the track, making very tricky to make possible an expansion of line C.
