Mooie compilatie. Dit zijn leuke zelfrijdende metro's (met pantograaf)

[@fin720s]

they arent self driving its just the cab only covers half the train

[@stephenvarty191]

These particular trains are past their USE BY date and the network is currently in the process of being drip fed new trains built in Switzerland.They are gradually being phased in and the old ones out.@@fin720s

Tyne & Wear Metro is not self-driving, firstly the signalling used on the Tyne & Wear Metro makes it not possible to be self-driving since Tyne & Wear Metro uses a modified version of PZB signalling which uses standard British rules and signals. Also, Network Rail the owner of the track between Pelaw and Bede/South Hylton requires all trains to have a driver in the cab. Also the Tyne & Wear Metro has got a few level crossings which would not be permitted on a self driving network. The Tyne & Wear Metro uses a non-standard voltage of 1.5kv DC in the OLE, the standard in the Great Britain is 25kv ac 50hz in the OLE.

The trains aren’t driverless. There is a small drivers cab at the front of the train.

De treinen zijn volgens mij niet zelfrijdend, de bestuurdercabine is links voorin. Omdat het in de bestuuderscabine donker is valt dit niet op. Binnenkort worden de treinen vervangen door nieuw matrieel, het huidige matrieel stamt nog van 1980, toen het metronet werd geopend

[@gezondendefietser]

er zit ook een bestuurder in zag ik af en toe

[@andymcguigan7238]

Did you get permission to video on the platform?

[@blutube9916]

This isn't North Korea (even if sometimes it looks like it)

[@metrotyler]

Metro is a public service

[@andymcguigan7238]

Permission to film or take photographs on Metro must be obtained in writing from Customer Relations

[@metrotyler]

​@@andymcguigan7238 The same page also mentions that "If you are an amateur photographer pursuing a project then some of the procedures may be waived" and that phone and camera usage is completely allowed especially during non-peak times. The section you have referenced refers mostly to larger projects and professional works.
