WMATA Metrorail: Breda 4000 series on the green line.

You gotta love ignored videos, because they become great history in the future. Here we have an Original breda running the green line back in 2013ish. As of July 2017 these along with the Rohr 1000 series were retired from service.

What I love about the 1000 and the 4000 series railcars is the door sound

[@System6VideoProductions]

Nadim Allen it’s a higher pitch than the rest of em

[@trainnadimamtrakthomasalle9037]

System6 Rail Videography that why I like the 1000 series and the 4000 series railcars, the high pitch door chime

[@Rehab1899]

I miss these so much. I had so much memories with these beasts!

[@SharlenesJourney]

That operator sounds familiar I think I rode her train before . But I miss these sounds grateful for the videos to relive it . The buzzing is so cool in LA their trains make similar noise . the other trains that came after this one has good sounds too unfortunately they’ve retired now too this year 😢 I wish they kept atleast one of each on the tracks it would be like a legendary train pull lol

[@LVTR-kr3rz]

2000 series without a buzzing sound from 1982 to 2005 for 23 years in service and still present after the rehab.
3000 series with a thick buzzing sound from 1985 to 2009 for 24 years in service and still present after the rehab.
4000 series with a thinner buzzing sound from 1992 to 2017 for 25 years in service and retired without being rehabbed.

Taken from Fort Totten to College Park-U Of MD stations on a Greenbelt bound WMATA Green Line train going from Washington, DC to College Park, MD. This is taken on a WMATA Breda 4000 series train car at the front of the Metro.

😪😣😥 no don't retire 🙏

[@stevenromero1723]

I miss the 1000 Series so much that was the first train i rode back in 2012 1:04 you can hear the Rohr Motors

[@filmer765]

I wish I knew where the buzzing came from because throughout the times I rode the Metrorail, I hardly rode on any of the 4000 series cars even if their retirement was close. The only one I rode on was 4029 on the Orange line. I wonder how loud the buzzer was in that car.

My two best metro cars are gone gone forever

[@j_5042]

+Nadim Allen no they are not gone they will come back as long as I'm here in 20 years this goes for other subway systems in the country as long as I'm here they will come back and stay that way
I mean it.

[@metronova94]

I always thought the buzzing was the sound of the wheels on the track but I don't know. Someone else I know thought it was buzzing from the PA system but I listened carefully and it was not coming from the PA system so I think it's the wheels accelerating or deaccelerating

[@System6VideoProductions]

It’s the propulsion

[@andreivillasana2798]

RIP 4000 series cars

[@josephsherman6129]

Don’t you think the 1000 & 4000 series had yellow walls inside the train? I think they had yellow walls inside the train. The 4000 series were always my favorites because of the Yellow Walls & thick window wires at the same exact time.

[@AWJ2013-c4c]

I love the high pitch randi miller voice

[@meh5552]

This is my 4,000th liked video!

[@bigbandbennett]

Why is the driver blowing the whistle every time a tunnel is entered or exited?

[@peabody1976]

I loved these original 2000-4000 series. Sadly they had so many door faults. The sounds of the traction motors is unique. I haven't heard them anywhere else on any system. RIP 4000s. (The 2000s and 3000s were all refurbished by Alstom so they don't sound like this anymore.)

[@Rohrbach17]

I love the way the 2000 and 3000 series trains sound now; not to mention that by far one of the best propulsion systems out there and to be completely honest, they have plenty of potential to give the New York City subway trains some competition (specifically those that were manufactured by Alstom and have a similar sounding propulsion)

[@UniqueStuff833]

Miami Dade transit use to use those traction motors, it got removed from passenger service by the new railcars last year

[@stevenromero1723]

Bro, why didn't wmata refurbish the 4000 series as well, like bruh

[@thekarlkeeper8727]

1991 OG Breda car 4070.

[@stevenromero1723]

Bro that buzz sound from that electric motor from the 4000 series car doesn't stop buzzing?

[@andreivillasana2798]

This video was recorded on Feburary 16 2017

[@Southeastern4204]

Florida Villasana it was recorded in 2013

[@reggieclayton8544]

This is my favorite metro railcar I am making a 3d model of this metro railcar.

[@System6VideoProductions]

Those AC traction motors are loud as hell.

[@Southeastern4204]

These actually had DC traction motors

[@System6VideoProductions]

ShepherdpkwyShuttle DC? Wha? Never knew that one. But still sounds loud from the inside. Nice horn action too. I will miss the 1000 and 4000 series trains.

[@Bogenspeakersguy]

What's that noise or even buzzing?

[@thomasday2351]

I Heard a Train Horn at the end.
