The DC metro is EASILY the safest subway system out there. Also, I've been in these 7000 series cars a few times, definitely like how clean it is compared to the old cars, BUT I really wish they kept the voice of the old cars to this series. That person sounded much happier and less robotic
@victort.47983 жыл бұрын
Cause it was an actual person's voice, unlike the robot on the new trains. I saw a video where they interviewed the lady who's voice was on the old trains. Apparently they asked people to submit entries and she never expected to be selected

I was talking to a Metro operator the other day. When the left side doors are opened, the operator has to get up, press the button on the left side of the train, cancel the alertor, and then press the button on the left side again. It's there as an "added safety feature".

Anyone else get aggravated that she kept overriding the robot? No? Just me? It's probably cause this is from 2015 when the trains were very new. Nowadays they only override the robot if they have to bypass a station for some reason and they have to alert people. I've gotten so used to the whole segment from the robot it messes with my brain when I don't get to hear the whole thing
