The Subway in Baltimore, Maryland 2023 (MTA)

Once the project was completed in 1995, the total cost for the Metro Subway was $1.392 billion.
The current system is 15.4 mi (24.8 km) long, including 6.2 mi (10 km) underground, 2.2 mi (3.5 km) elevated, and 7.0 mi (11.3 km) at grade level (with roadways separated). Eight of its 14 stations are underground, at depths of 52 ft (16 m) to 112 ft (34 m) below street level. Its elevated stations stand from 25 ft (7.6 m) to 28 ft (8.5 m) above ground.
When the system started operation, it became the largest single user of Susan B. Anthony dollar coins.
On February 11, 2018, the MTA announced a month-long closure of the entire subway system to complete emergency track repairs identified during a safety inspection. An aboveground portion of the system had already been shut down due to emergency inspections and repairs. The system reopened on March 9 ~Wikipedia

this line's rolling stock and its stations are the weirdest cross between LA's subway and the DC Metro, It's really, really cool. I wish this system could get a good expansion and its full potential could be realized. Baltimore is an underrated city that deserves the world-class transit the cities surrounding it have

[@York22]

I really wish this system would be expanded.

[@transitfan2000]

And Miami too

Not the lawless hellhole the internet would have you believe that Baltimore is. Looks very clean and modern.

[@jackchen7003]

Are you kidding? I am scared to get off at Baltimore, nevertheless riding the subway there...

[@jg-7780]

Clean? Debatable. There's not as much trash as a system like Philly, but you definitely feel the age of the trains and station. Modern? Lmao no, it's very clearly an 80s system.

[@MilesJajich]

I was in Baltimore for the first time earlier this month. Wasn’t a huge fan of their light rail system, but I loved riding the SubwayLink.

[@marccreter9348]

I love Baltimore but the Metro is filthy and dated

[@ubahnlexi]

@@jackchen7003 it's totally OK. don't start anything and you don't get anything. it's truly magnificent how powerful just minding your own business can be!

[@roachtoasties]

The subways cars are similar to the Los Angeles Red and Purple lines (they're currently being replaced). From this video, it looks like a refurbishment and expansion is long overdue.

[@Cerby1979]

These are the Budd trains which were also used by the Metrorail in Miami, but Metrorail’s Budd trains were retired from service in 2021.

[@Rovan84127]

Expansion is decades long overdue, and as things currently stand today I’ve lost hope that this is going to get any meaningful change. That said, I’ll be more than happy to eat my own words if Baltimore develops a metrorail that rivals DC’s in the future.

[@ATLOV2013]

These cars sound the same as the WMATA 3000/4000 series cars unrehabbed. Plus, both the WMATA Breda and BUDD cars had Chopper Controlled traction system.

[@jammes122]

A decent-ish subway line that unfortunately covers very little of the region. I know there were extension plans to take it through northeast Baltimore and out to White Marsh but they were scrapped. The present line is basically useless you happen to live near it - which most people don’t 😢

[@ubahnlexi]

Absolute godsend for me going downtown after school though, lol. Just take the pink and then connect to it easy

[@fokusnikfim]

Hello. Klasse lakomotive 🛤️🚅🚃🚃🚃👍👍👍 Thanks........Fim👮🚂🤚

[@marcosjuarez7809]

The Miami Metrorail used to have those Budd UTV rail cars. They were replaced by the newer Hitachi Rail USA rail cars.

[@penskepc2374]

I like the square metro trains. Im not a fan of them looking more and more like wide streecars. Great videp!

[@robertcartwright4374]

Nice!

[@CrabMan2539]

I'd love to see an expansion of the subway system but Baltimore has pretty much taken up all available space. There is no area I can think of anywhere where you can get the trains above ground or even make a parking lot for subway stations. Like going through into Towson and Cockeysville has practically zero space at all. All of it is taken up by houses and businesses.

[@York22]

They could expand it within the city

[@CrabMan2539]

@@York22 That would be a good first step but if possible, it really should be expanded outside the city as well so people can get from outside the city to inside the city and vice versa.

[@evy2031]

there is no need to make a parking lot for an inner city subway station. Those riders aren’t going to have cars with them to begin with

[@CrabMan2539]

@@evy2031 Oh nah I wasn't referring to downtown area, I was referring to the areas outside the city. Basically I was saying that areas even outside the city don't really have space for parking lots.

[@jg-7780]

I'd love to see elevated rail over York rd

Wrong channel :P

I went to Baltimore back in June. really easy to navigate. just go during the day time.

[@merccadoosis8847]

Nice video. Sorry I missed the live premier. I had checked your channel earlier on but there was no indication that you were about to be on at 10AM (Central). Can you please post an indication on your channel as to when you'll be on? See ya next time ...

[@hermanhuang9048]

merc, I didn't see an indication either, but I'm "programmed" 😀 to check at 11 AM Eastern on days when I expect a premiere, unless I'm preoccupied. The current schedule is every other day.
