Came from NYT article - Transit is very satisfying, and especially for anyone on the spectrum. For the most part trains are reliable, patterned, and consistent. The bright coloring and musicality are enjoyable. A video of doors kerplunking closed exactly captures that satisfying feeling. Love that it got 2M views even before the NYT linked to it!
As a Spectrum adult raising a spectrum child, it is soothing. My son loves my trains and buses as much as I do. NYCT forever; those in charge need to get it tofuckingether
It seems the YT algorithm is blocking comments that have a link to the New York Times Article that came out about train and subway announcements because of the link. The full title of the article is "The Hidden Melodies of Subways Around the World When train doors close, these jingles warn riders to stand clear." and you can find it on their website. You can find the link to the article in the Community section of this channel.
man im so glad that there's people like you who travel round the world to take videos of seemingly trivial things. Tho, this is a big part of my commutes anytime i travel, thanks for sharing!
Older subway trains in Munich (Type A from the video and also the similar type B) have manual announcements. Also, their doors must be opened manually by the passengers using the door handle.
Luckily Type A is (officially) getting retired by next year, although some employees from Munich’s transport authority told me that Type A might stay a little longer
@@XM.2005 As someone tending towards nostalgia, I'm not that happy to see the type A trains go away. They're iconic and comfortable, and in the past few years, some have gotten digital screens and automated announcements retrofitted. But it's necessary because replacement parts for 50 year old subway trains are hard to get anymore.
@@LunaDragofelis Actually the retrofit program you mentioned is exactly more or less the reason of why the A Type will stay a while longer. You see, part of the program is the installation of a new fire supression system on the newer B and C1 Trains (which will continue service until sometime in the 2030s) in order to comply with new security guidelines, which will take effect next year. According to the people I talked with, the system is not yet coming along very nicely with the rest of the trains tech. And on top of that, for some reason, replacement parts for B-type are harder to come by these days than for the A-type. So until these issues get resolved properly, the A-Trains will stay in service. Although neither the transit authority nor the personell are particularly happy about that.
The knobhead on TPX is a constant problem. I use TPX as they are my local and EVERY SINGLE TRAIN gets that at rush hour ... Without fail. They now have a warning siren on the platform that goes off as required.
Piccadilly Line train leaving Piccadilly Circus. Hammersmith & City Line train leaving Hammersmith. Waterloo & City Line train leaving Waterloo. Bakerloo Line train leaving Baker Street.
Do Paris later. Maybe add the Acela. Also, ALL of Max has the sound type 5 has. All of skytrain too(Maybe include WCE). Philly, LA, the new bart cars, Toronto, Montreal, Singapore, the 5000 cars of Chicago(you can tell if the first digit is a 5), Glasgow, Berlin, and tons of others.
OltonHall at least do Los Angeles, all of our trains have different chimes (I even have a sample of a Nippon Sharyo P865 door chime on me) and our red line chimes sound like the ones in boston

0:49 it sounds like the grand London clock striking two
I’m used to the PATH, MTA, and NJT beeps the most but amazing how different some are. But I love the sound of the accelerating motor at the end.

2:10 the PATH has such a nice chime
I agree
Totally agree, I’m pretty sure i listened to it for like a hundred times 😂
I just watched 3 and a half minutes of train doors closing, and I enjoyed every second of it.
Same! Why ist this so fascinating? 🤔😂
Exactly im obsessed with train doors

Finally a sequel (other than Toy Story 2) that lives up to its predecessor.
We were in Dublin and rode the Hop on and Off Bus and the Luas on our last two days in Ireland in June 2019. We hope to be back in the next few Years.
The tube ones are just iconic 😌🇬🇧

1:05 Great Western Railway - Class 150
What I like about this, is that it shows that different sounds mean the same thing and our minds are able to process it and understand it is amazing.

1:10 is a vibe
0:57 Transport for Edinburgh - Edinburgh Tram
Slt ns
The windows on the doors on the GWR Class 150 Sprinter look very similar to Hong Kong MTR's M-stock.
The orginal windows in both trains may have come from the same company in the UK.

Alex Straube there was also a s7 stock hammersmith and city, district, circle and metropolitan line introduced first in 2012-13
S7 was introduced in 2010 on the metropolitan line
1:13 has got to be one of my biggest pet peeves when riding the train.
If you're not getting off at the next station, get the fuck out of the doorway!
I Highly Agree
0:49 the chime sounds like the millenium funcliar beno rode
Bruh. Wtf. It doesn’t.

I love Victoria Line train sound 😌
At 2:10 On The PATH Train Sometimes The Announcement Never Finishes Saying "Stand Clear of The Closing Doors.
2:00 is the red luas line. Not the green one. I thought the DART was in this thing too.
??? Video says Red Line. I have not had a reason to ride DART on my past trips to Ireland.
Oh right.
Yay! You added my favourite London underground stocks!
2:03 My personal favourite.

Those piano like tones sound really nice and soothing.
You need to do Queensland Rail EMU trains. Those close ridiculously fast.

That is not old
1:12 violent doors!!
And Also Mk3 Coaches In The UK are Violent,Because They’re Slam Doors
1:11*
Most of those trains have much less violent doors, that one was a bit more energetic than usual 😆
Also Class 43 Is violent (ScotRail)
Paris RER B and old metro have violent doors. VAL208 and (not) VAL 206 too.
I've been to the London underground, Edinburgh trams and the MTR (Hong Kong)
You need to do Helsinki Metro.
Do the A line in denver! It's a new type of train.
That will most likely be in the next video.
OltonHall Do a p3 with Strathclyde Public Transport, ScotRail, LNER, Locomotive and SWR trains
I've always found it funny how the PATH door chime often cuts off the "doors closing" announcement.
0:05 Trimet - MAX Light Rail Type 5
0:15 I guess we'll never know what the next station is
Charlie Clapp you Cheenel Picture looks cool

THANKS FOR DOING THE NFTA BUFFALO NY
2:45 good example to hold your hand to let the door know that your hand is there
The M2/M3 was Withdrawn due to their age, and Replced with newer Alstom Metropolis M5 Built in Poland
