Here is a video I made of the DC Subway, sometimes referred to as the DC Metro, Washington Metro, or WMATA. The days the videos were taken are November 23 and 24 at various stations.
Bro the tractionmoters are so iconic for the older sets when they are leaving they always sound like a continuous high pitch noise then a short really high pitch noise then back to the continuous high pitch
The metro is super nostalgic for me. We'd go to DC once a year when I was a kid (in the 90s) for the 4th of July. I loved riding the metro so much. When I was in college I was in a long distance relationship and would take the Blue Line to see my boyfriend almost every weekend.
Literally was on the trains earlier today, just for a job interview. I'm not used to trains, even though I was born and raised in DC. And, I don't know why I like the sound of DC trains. The stops sounds and click clacks maybe?

DontUputThatEvilOnMe Their 7000 series trains are the new ones. They were in service since 2015. They now plan on finding a manufacture for 8000 series cars.
@@extremefun5873 Not really, also check your spelling. Metro has retired their 1000 Series(1976), their 4000 series(1991) & their 5000 Series(2001) Metro has kept the 2000 & 3000 from 1984 because they have got an rehab in 2006 their second newest series is the 6000 Series which went in service in 2006, & then theirs the 7000 Series soo, you pretty much wrong
I'll never ride DC metrorail again. The service sucks, security is insufficient, attendants are rude and the trains are disgusting. Crackheads even do and deal illegal drugs in the trains and on the platforms.

Makes me want to take the Metro into DC! I live in Northern Virginia, aka NOVA.
At times they sound like R160As and R179s lol
4:18 the cars you see here are powered by Alstom, the same manufacturers of the R160A
The 3000 and 6000 series sound similar to the r160's, while the 7000 series sound similar to the r179's.
cant wait for the new models of cars
This made me cry 😢 😭
how come It made u cry
@@tameikabrown2542 I never got on it ever
@@antionocarter1118 you still can when you are a grownup
@@Vemonvine maybe
@@tameikabrown2542it made me tear up a little too, the scent of the metro, the architecture and the acoustic sounds of this masterpiece is impressive.
I notice the old trains are mixing some of the new cars
Very rarely they will mix the 2k and 3k with the 6k.
Edit: the 2k has now been retired from service permanently.

This system puts the one in my city to shame. In Houston, there are always drunk men screaming at each other for a window seat
Houston can't even have a underground system cause we get too much floods
Chuga Choo Choo! I'm a train and I approve this video :)
