⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Exploring Munich U-Bahn Line U6
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- Line U6 is the oldest U-Bahn line of the Munich's metro network and also features the oldest tunnel built: the section below the Lindwurmstraße (between Sendlinger Tor and including the station Goetheplatz, built in the late 1930s). This line also has a significant outdoor running portion, the only one on Munich's network. The line operates a mix of all four types of Munich's rolling stock, including the iconic Type A and Type B cars. Enjoy!

I am from Munich, and I like the older trains so much better! Type B is my favourite!
Using the U6 was so fun during the EURO games, it was just full of fans :D
Agreed! The Type Bs are very iconic.
@@DJHammersTrains Of course! But the As are also amazing, especially when accelerating with open windows, the engine sounds fucking amazing! Very close to the B.
When I was young about 3, we were in munich and we have footage of the b trains and me plugging my ears.
When i always see the Rolling Stock Type A it always reminds me of the Metrovagonmash 81-717
In the summers of 1997 and 1998, I lived in Munich, and almost every day, I would ride the U-Bahn between home and work, otherwise I would take the S-Bahn or bus. At the time, there were only the type A and B in service. Only since August 2003 did I ride the Type C U Bahn cars.
For those who have ever seen Percy Adlon's 1985 film "Sugarbaby", particularly on the U6, the Type A cars were shown, and the actual U6 line was shown in several scenes, between Sendlinger Tor and Freimann.
Last year, I went on the U6 as far as Garching-Forschungszentrum, and I was able to tell, where the former terminus was at Garching-Hochbruck. The latter station had been the terminus as far back as June 1998.
I plan to return to Munich next year, just for a few days. I believe that the type A trains will still be running by then.
If you want to use the old trains, use the U4 line (my 'home'-line), because there are only short trains operating and therefore only old trains are going there (that's why I love using this line so much!). Only during Oktoberfest, the new trains operate there.
I absolutely love the design of the A type rolling stock. They remind me of the 115 series of the Japan national Railways belonging to a similar era. I wish I can travel to see with my own eyes somedays.
Same here! Love the Type A and Type B.
I lived in Munich for 22 years and this was my main route, thank you! When you were at the Poccistrasse station, I always got on at the same place! :)
So glad you enjoyed the video! Very much enjoyed exploring the system.
More videos coming soon 😃
Die alten U Bahn Garnituren sehen aus wie die Silberpfeile in Wien. Ich glaube die wurden auch in Wien gebaut bei Siemens
Ja, die waren früher sogar kompatibel, d.h. man konnte die kuppeln.
@@mangomerkel2005 ah ok ja danke für die Info
@@urbex_girl91 Ich weiß nicht, ob die in Wien gebaut wurden (müsste mich dafür nochmal einlesen), aber die sind auf jeden Fall vom gleichen Hersteller. Lies dir mal die Wikipediaseite MVG Baureihe A durch.
I rode on the F train Via West End (F Via D) R160 to Grand Street today I got lots of pictures and videos:D
@psychic_psycho Rolling stock “A” were put into service when? How many big city systems have serviceable cars that old still running and in good condition?
The A-Wagen was produced between 1970 and 1983 an the prototypes were delivered already 1967. The oldest car number 106 is from 1970 and still in regular Service
Berlin F76 from 1976, F84, F90 are similar.
At this point there are still running 60 units of the "A" so 20 complete Trains
Interesting video. Oldest and newest rolling stock works well.🥰👌👍
Muy buen video Excelente estimado amigo Like 👍🏻 y saludos 😊
Glad you enjoyed!!
Saulracing: Oh my gosh DJ, I didn't realize you went German
Amazing work DJ ❤❤ 7:49
How does MVG (Munich’s transit system) keep their oldest cars in active revenue service?
As of 2024, there runs only 119 cars in service
You should film the U2 next, I think it has more C1 cars
Videos of all the lines are coming soon :)
The C1s were very few and far between, but we managed to catch a ride on them once on the U2
@@DJHammersTrains nice!
12 seconds ago that’s crazy

The thumbnail photo proves that the design of that particular batch of train is of a terrible design; London Underground trains that were built during the 1930's were of a better design than virtually every other European underground train built during the 20th century.
Oh please, the London Underground or should I say every train in the UK has a horrible design. The design of the Type A is really common in Central European Metro systems from the 70s. I think it is beautiful but everyone has a different kind of taste
@@Mr.A-Wagen Horrible design?; with your liking of the Type A train design it is blatantly obvious that you have no knowledge of what makes great design, let alone having a background in Industrial-Design. With the exception of London Underground trains, all other metro trains of rest of Europe are EXTREMELY linear with flat roofs; whereas London Underground trains have beautiful curves most important of which is the curved roofs, even our Underground trains from the 1930's looked more modern than other European metro trains that were built 50 years later, and this fact has been expressed by someone who has a a qualification in Industrial-Design.
@@PSYCHIC_PSYCHOI think the A-Train looks brilliantly. End of the discussion
@@Mr.A-Wagen You would say that because you have absolutely no understanding of what great design means.
@@PSYCHIC_PSYCHOI say that because it’s my childhood and I absolutely love these trains!
