⁴ᴷ Washington Metro Action

[@kobyschechter8163]

New Yorker here. DC’s metro is the most beautiful public transportation system I’ve ever seen. The stations are absolutely gorgeous along with the new train cars.

[@smokeypuppy417]

You have obviously never been to Germany and rode their trains.

[@daxoze]

Love the aesthetic of DC Metro stations. The dark, indirect lighting, the red lights at the platform edge, the outdated decor, the sounds the trains make... I seriously love it. It's like a time capsule.

[@chris4484]

daxoze Agreed!! I could never personally describe how it felt to me being in the station, and you just hit the bullseye with a perfect explanation.

[@ayeshamcnair3584]

Definitely! My favourite metro anywhere I’ve visited in the world. It’s just got something slightly dystopian about it

[@eggzon1275]

Don’t care what New Yorkers say Washington DC is way better

[@nyctransitrailfan]

New York city subway was built in 1904, one of the oldest systems in New York City. That is why some subway stations are dirty. I agree that Washington metro system is better because of the design of the stations that don't look old. They look clean. MTA has a plan to renovate stations but it takes so long to renovate them, maximum 9 to 11 months. By the way, how long does it take to build a new station or to extend a line because in New York's system, it takes about 8 years to extend a line. And about 10 years to extend a line for 3 more stops.

[@insertchannelnamehere8685]

@Owly123 True, I agree WMATA is better than MTA, but...then again, the silver line phase 2 extension(6 stations) is supposed to open next year, 7 years after construction started...not great, but still better than NYC ig

[@H5subway5707]

[@spider_hoss]

The 7000 series trains are missing that sound that the older trains make when they come into the station. To me that's the signature sound of the Metro.

[@Tzartle_The_Kaiju]

U mean the onix traction motors

[@Tzartle_The_Kaiju]

Yeah I miss them too buddy

[@MiketheNerdRanger]

Yeah. But what I do like about the 7000s is how they *thundered* into the station. For whatever reason, there was this rumble that would happen when they arrived. You can really hear it at 11:55

[@Tzartle_The_Kaiju]

@@MiketheNerdRangeryou can hear it a ton at L’efant on the green/yellow platforms.

[@ryanmagnani2411]

The sounds of the Metro are so iconic to anyone who rides it. The only thing I don't like about the new trains is that they lost the "metro sound" and the door chimes.

[@Autistic_EthanOfficial]

They fucked up the whole train in general. It no longer fits with the rest of the metro

[@jerkov420]

[@stevenkelly2477]

[@richterpswag2729]

DC area native here! Lemme explain: The shiny new aluminum-body cars are the freshest, the 7000-series built by Kawasaki and entering service since 2016 onward. The order is for over 700 cars. They're a departure from all previous as they're designed to work as 4-car sets rather than 2-car married pairs. Hence all new trains are 8-cars, the max platform length. 6-car trains are made of the older traincars: 1000-series (delivered at system open, oldest in fleet, built by Rohr), 2000- and 3000-series (originally by Breda, rehabbed by Alstom), 4000-series (by Breda), 5000-series (by CAF) and 6000-series (by Alstom). Hence the sound similarities with the NYC Alstom fleet. All trains run with one driver, who doubles as the conductor (hence the lag with opening doors upon platforming) There are no express tracks. Multiple services share the same track (Green-Yellow, Blue-Orange-Silver; Red is its own track, unshared). And sorry, no RFWs =( Right now WMATA (commonly referred to as Metro) is going through it. So there are things that need fixing/improving/etc. Current traction power levels haven't been upped since opening, hence there's not enough power to run 100% 8-car-train ops. Most times, trains are 6-cars, with 8-car service increased during rush hours. All new trains run as 8-cars at all times. Most 6-car trains are mixed series, with older cars bellied in the middle of the train. As more new railcars enter service, the 1000-series cars are being decommissioned. With this comes the reassembly of trains, and Metro has indicated a move going forward to assembling same-series trains to reduce service issues and improve maintenance consistency (and prevent the hiccuping at 11:16 [at least in part]).

[@YourGoat803]

Rich TerpSwag 11:16 what's that all about?

[@richterpswag2729]

Either a misread of the signal, or the train keeps giving the driver unnecessary stop commands

[@baetsimpson]

[@dragondancer1814]

I grew up in the DC-Metro suburbs, so I grew up riding the rails. This takes me back to all those weekends we’d go to DC for whatever reason, and we ALWAYS rode the Metrorail! Now I live in western Maryland, and they’re breaking ground to build a factory where the new Metrorail train cars are going to be manufactured. It’s like coming full circle for me!

[@samyazzam4517]

I love the Metro. Just started at DELTA Resources Inc. in SE DC 1100 New Jersey Avenue. I love Metro, especially the tunnels.

[@draco_meteor]

I read somewhere that stations in the DC Metro were designed specifically to prevent crime and vandalism. Stations are generally very open, allowing security personnel to easily scan the length of each platform, and you are physically unable to touch the platform tunnel walls.

[@NickyD]

yup and everything is easy to use rather then nyc subway which is a joke

[@draco_meteor]

Nicky D After living in both cities, I honestly prefer New York. New York's subway has much more history, and unlike most other systems, it's flexible: signalling problem and track repairs are a minor inconvenience and trains can be rerouted to other tracks whereas if anything went wrong in DC, the entire system is slowed down.

[@skierskater1000]

DracoMeatyYour I also prefer MTA's single-price system.

[@dreamyyx_3762]

NYC MTA may have more history but the stations are dirty, rats everywhere.......

[@luthermcgee432]

I lived and worked in Washington DC for a total of 4 years. 2 in the '80s, and 2 in the '90s. As an artist, I drew different metro stations: Ft.

[@MondoBeno]

There are so many part of DC with no subway service. There should be a line that runs straight across the part south of the Anacostia River.

[@stevenkelly9731]

I agree...but it was also designed to be a commuter instead of just local subway like NYC, Boston, Philly...which were opened in the late 19/ early 20th century before the expansion of cars.

[@nyctransitrailfan]

New York still has the old Signal Box that can't make trains on time and at fast rate. Now, MTA or the NYC subway, is making CBTC to replace the old Signal Boxes, which will allow more trains to run with less delays and will make trains run faster at a safe speed rate. I have been seeing this change on a line I ride on in NYC which is the 7 line, which always had delays and trains weren't that fast during rush hours before CBTC. But now, with CBTC, my line has been gast arriving at stations fast and enter safely. Trains are closer so that the other one comes right away in the station during rush hours.

[@marylandrailfan2008]

Who misses the old breta and alstom cars from the 1980s

[@MidnightAspec]

As a daily rider on NYCTA subways, I never pass up a chance to ride the DC metro when in the area several times a year. Fantastic system, though their fare structure is terrible; they need adopt the one price per ride system the NYC subway riders "enjoy".

[@alden5931]

Here in Philly, we use one-price-per-ride too on our subways, trolleys, buses, trolleybuses, and the NHSL. It's quite similar to NYC, but we are moving on to contactless cards (unlike NYC's strip passes) from our ancient token-and-transfer system. I agree that WMATA should change its system. (As of 3/118) Philly fares on the SEPTA key cards are $2, $2.50 in cash. What's the NYC fare?

[@ThatGuy-te9wh]

the Metro gets a grand total of 3% of its funding from DC, VA and MD. It's a miracle each ride isn't 10 dollars.

[@charlescrowell915]

NYC MTA fare is $2.75 for subway and local buses. Express buses are $6.50.

[@rockvilleraven]

Its based on a commuter rail fare structure and we don't have any dedicated funding sources. The Circulator buses in DC are now free indefinitely as well as the streetcar line in Northeast.

[@nyctransitrailfan]

The Signaling system is bad in the New York City subway, which create delays on some lines. The Eight Avenue line, the A C and E lines take so long to arrive at a station. And it is because of the old signal boxes. Not only that, NYC subway stations are so dirty and they have rats running around the rails. MTA hasn't done a very well job to Renovate this stations. It takes 9 to 11 months to renovate ONE station. Astoria Line took 12 Months for renovations. It sucks for real

Too bad the 1000 series aren’t around anymore, I hope the preserved one makes a comeback.

[@Tzartle_The_Kaiju]

They preserve two cars from each series

[@snackwrap2011]

I see they mix they trains a lot first have sounds different from the other half an example will be like the r160 Alstom mix with Siemens

[@basictransportenthusiast4386]

Are these Cars Built By Bombardier? They Sound and Look like they Do

[@baetsimpson]

None of them are.

[@elmarquez2138]

there from alstom right?

[@baetsimpson]

daytona500iscool Some of them are.

[@louiszhang3050]

Yikes, looking back on this footage I can see why so many people were complaining about Metro back then. 12 minute headways on the red line!? These timetables look like they make no sense. Thankfully things are a lot better now. Better train spacing and more frequency helped this system recover from COVID a lot.

[@thechickenstew3716]

I have only been on the old ones. When did the newish ones come out?

[@skierskater1000]

The 7000 series (silver) carriages were introduced in 2016 and are slowing replacing the old brown ones.

[@dreamyyx_3762]

The 6000 series is the #2 youngest series.. They were released in 2006. The 2000/3000 was released 1982-1984.. The 4000 series were released in 1991 part of the Green Line opening. The 5000 series was released in 2001 and the 1000 series was released of Metro's opening day. *1976*

[@astrolight8084]

Red light flashing means train is near by. Solid red means train is far.

19:45 I lowkey thought the 7K leaving the station derailed

[@ItsFinRocket]

Anyone else see that dude coming outta the train thinking where he is? Then looking at the map inside the train and talking to the person sitting. (7:55)

[@extremefun5873]

It said recorded 3 years ago and right now it is 2020. So 2020-3 years equals 2017

[@ArtisticHH57]

[@BadQualityEntertainment]

I mix of a 3K and 1K series train

[@extremefun5873]
