They're also both ONIX systems built in the USA around the same time. (R160 is ONIX 800, Washington Metro is ONIX 2000). The Warsaw Metro Metropolis 98B also has an Alstom VVVF that makes the same sound as the R160, with maybe some subtle differences.
this is so beyond cool- because i've lived in dc all my life i actually predicted the way the braking would sound- it made me so happy. the randomest things cheer me up lol
@@benjaminbrown3939 I miss hearing those sounds from the Rohr 1000-Series Trains. The propulsion from it sounded so beautiful and nostalgic back then before they took them off.
You must have got a train with a clean carpet floor. Most I see just do not hold up which is why the floor on the 6000 series is being replaced with the type on the 7000 series. Although the seats on the older trains are much more comfortable than the ones on the 7000 series.
2k, 3k, and 7k are the only ones in service. 1ks were retired as the 7ks arrived. 4k and 5k were retired shortly after the arrivale of the 7ks because the 4s and 5s were horrible. 6ks are out of service untill further notice following 2019's series of uncoupling incidents. And by uncoupling, I mean at the drawbar end where they're not supposed to separate. From what I understand, they discovered workmanship and building issues that requires the entire fleet of 6ks rebuilt on the blind end and with the 8ks right around the corner and ridership still down from Covid, it's not worth the effort and money to rebuild them right now. As for whether they will ever be rebuilt or just scrapped, that is to be determined.
What cities or countries do you normally visit to make these recordings? I have several trains in mind whose traction motors have sounds I would be interested in seeing on this Inductor-Recording display, but I don't want to overload you with suggestions.
Since I'm Japanese, I've recorded almost all the trains in Japan which seems to be recordable. Also I went abroad several times, but not so frequently. I'll upload them in this channel or my website, but it will take several years to finish this...
@@ebaraexpress7260 If you ever get around to it, a few trains I would be interested in seeing the inductor-recorded transcriptions for would be: *San Diego Trolley S70s *Los Angeles Metro A650 GTO-VVVF (similar sound to the former WMATA 1K Series) & P2550 IGBT-VVVF *Vancouver SkyTrain ICTS Mark I *Paris Metro MP 89 *Munich U-Bahn C2 Class
Please do regular acceleration noise! I’ve been lookin forever to find a clear acceleration audio and cruising audio. This audio is good but I don’t use this type of audio
That's because the sound caused by the PWM is almost erased by the motor's roaring sound in the higher speed range. If you record them by using an inductor, you can get this full asynchronous PWM's sound.

For a split second, the 2K, 3K, and the 6K of the DC Metro sounded like the simplified version of the NYC Subway R160A traincars
Well, they were both manufactured by Alstom

@@wlctransit7593 98B has a system derived from Onix 800 but is not the same.

UPDATE: As of 23 September 2021, the 6000 series are back in service!
更新：2021年9月23日の時点で、6000系電車がサービスを再開しました！
更新：截至2021年9月23日，华盛顿地铁6000系型列车重新投入载客服务！
Half of it sounds like a R160
Why does it change carrier frequency like this with no seaming relation to anything praticle.
Great job I’ve been a fan of the dc metro since I was 8
I wish the old Rohr trains were around to record those
Try the LA Metro Breda A650s. They use the same propulsion as the old rohr 1000 series.
@@benjaminbrown3939 I miss hearing those sounds from the Rohr 1000-Series Trains. The propulsion from it sounded so beautiful and nostalgic back then before they took them off.
Amazing! Finally
It sounds like the pst9 train in pta subway Callaghan lines in Roblox
They use the exact same propulsion.

The 6000 series has a few more months or years probably until WMATA orders the 8000s.
The 6000s are out of service untill further notice, though. Can't seem to figure out why they came apart.
What about the 2Ks?

For a second It sounded like the R160A|B Alstom/R142\

Nice! How can I get an inductor for myself?

Sounds like the r160 a lil
It's pretty fashionable to have a carpet inside the train
What about RTD light Rail Motor
@Ebara Express I have a question. How many acceleration/deceleration patterns does the LIRR M7 have?
Maybe only one pattern, since there aren't many pulse modes.
Can you do the WMATA Rohr 1000 Series Motor what it sounded like ?
You mean BART Rohr?
@@fatimamartins5925 The Rohr 1000 Series sounded like LA Metro's motor
@@fatimamartins5925 WMATA also had Rohr trains with the same VF drives. Sadly, those aren't around anymore.
Pov: stepping on a lego
Weird IGBT. Never been a fan of the ONIX sets.
but onix 1500😍
Our Z 20900, Z 23500 or MI 09 trainsets even the UQE 3500 have beautiful sounds even it's OnIX 1500 ^^
R160A
Why dont i hear the rest after 0:15 when i ride it?
That's because the sound caused by the PWM is almost erased by the motor's roaring sound in the higher speed range.
If you record them by using an inductor, you can get this full asynchronous PWM's sound.
Oh, thanks
❤️
Do the LA Metro Breda A650 and NJ Transit’s Arrow III
I'm sorry he doesn't take requests...
@@SigmaRho2922 he does but not all.
can do singapore

hey actually im starting on inductor recording all the singapore trains if youre interested, ive posted a few to my channel already
MTA/Path/NJT/LIRR/MNRR is still better
