kinkisharyocoasters The last time I rode the train for the fun of it, you can stay on at the baggage claim stop (or even get off and back on before the doors close) and you can ride it back up the concourse chain.
The voice was updated march 2012 and also a concourse F and new trains with LED screens with a train map. "T as in Tango" "A as is Alpha" "B as in Bravo" "C as in Charlie" "D as in David" "E as in Echo" "F as in Foxtrot" (In the NATO alphabet, D is actually Delta, but the airport didn't want to confuse travelers with the airline, so they have David instead.)
There are 7 stops for the Plane Train. BAGGAGE CLAIM AND ALL GROUND TRANSPORTATION T - GATES CONCOURSE A CONCOURSE B CONCOURSE C CONCOURSE D CONCOURSE E
@Anjasomc Generally, there really aren't any delays with this train. What happened at the end of this video is a deviation from the norm. I'm guessing what happened is a train was delayed farther ahead due to someone blocking the door, etc., and the delay was just rippling through the system. The trains usually have enough of a headway that a short delay doesn't cause any issues, but a longer delay could. In the 15+ years I've traveled out of ATL, I've only seen the train out of service twice.
The station at the west end (called Domestic baggage claim) is for egress only, right? Once you step on the escalator, you're allowed to posess a weapon if you have a permit, so I think if you're departing, you'll be directed to the next station down the line (Concourse "T) after security. Would it be legal to stay on the train as it runs light after discharging at the terminal?
I can imagine that there would always be delays on that system because you have one train in the station ahead of the next one, so if doors were obstructed or something, all of the other trains would have to wait. And it's funny that someone had climbed all the way down the broken escalator to find that they could not get off at the end!
I love the one at MCO, since it's outside and you can see the planes. It's just like the one at Tampa, though more efficient. I wonder why the doors are opaque? Vandalism shouldn't be a problem since it's in the secure zone. Maybe it's anti-terrorist, though it's possible to see the track looking through the glass at the buffer, seeing the train come up close to you.
They were actually updated not long after this video (March 2012). Trivia: 1. Despite the on-board audio having been changed 3 times, the 1994 audio is still used on the station platforms. 2. The voice you hear is Susan Bennett, who provides the gate announcements for Delta and, more recognizably, Siri.
@therealjimguy In that case I suggest you Google US Department of Homeland Security, Federal Protective Service's report number HQ-IB-012-2010 and the Photographers Bill of Rights. Both state that you are protected under Constitutional rights to videotape in any public (or private place with permission) without permission.

ATL is my home airport, and I don't know how I would live without getting to ride this train each month! Thanks for the good video!
Pretty much love the Bombardier Innovia APM 100

I think they have these at Orlando INTL. Only difference is, it's only a 2-stop system, and the stations don't have windows (solid doors, too).

+Auggie Whitman Taxiway D on the apron in ATL is also called Dixie rather than Delta, which is very appropriate... : )
Auggie Whitman I remember when the trains voice was like a creepy monotone robot voice.

I work for Bomardier! I make all the little electrical and mechanical parts for these!
Why do the announcements sound lower pitched in some of the cars? Do they use a tape drive or what?
Can you please give me a detailed explanation of how the in-vehicle announcements work on the automated people mover?

What does the announcement say? The next stop is concourse c and then?
"Concourse 'C', as in 'Charlie'".
I love airports :)
live in the atl area love that airport
Whats terrible about the escalator?
I get to go on this next month!
The reason the train was held after you got off is because the one ahead of you (at concourse C) was being held up by somebody.
Yeah, if this is in the USA, you'd better be careful, DD!

When I saw you enter all i thought about was half-life "WELCOME TO THE BLACK MESA TRANSIT SYSTEM"
you do know it was made it the UK
When Susan Bennett was doing it as Siri before Sharon Feingold became the voice.
