@480silverton yes, this was the original voice used from 1995-2007. that's when they changed it to the current one, but many people prefer the old stuff
i got to ride this back in 2004 when i went to Denver to visit a family member who was in the Craig Hospital. i want to go ride it again. its by far one of the nicest airports i been to.
This video is awesome! Denver International Airport rocks, even though their baggage system never worked, and I never have sat in the back or the front, so I haven't gotten that same feeling that others have gotten from it! Awesome video!
I used to ride that train when I was little when we were connecting in Denver. That is United's Hub. We would always connect there all the time. And sometimes we get lucky because sometimes we get to get on a huge Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet :o
@BFaust03131 Yes they still use the personal greeting. As well, the recordings currently feature the voices of former Coors Field announcer Alan Roach, and local KUSA-TV anchor Adele Arakawa. One is played in the First and Third Cars while the other is played in the Second and Forth Car.
The announcement on the Denver Airport trams is computerized. While the announcements stay generally the same, the music is interchanged from time to time and the voice of the announcer changes.
Great video! Have flown in and out of Denver International twice now and have ridden the tram. Very quick,convenient,and cool. Very nice Airport as well.
Ahh i love DIA's tram system. Heck I love going to DIA, it's so cool (it's a shame they had to remove the fountain where the guest waiting area it). BTW this must have been an early flight ... the tram is quiet, and there wasn't really anyone around
Neat video. Something only transit nerds like us could get a kick out of. Last time i've been on that tram was when they first opened that airport back in '95, the whole place was real impressive and was a great introduction to the Denver/Front-Range region (much nicer than Stapleton, IMHO). Wish the O'Hare ATS was that snazzy (why not have little blues tunes playing at each stop?! Do you hear me Daley?? :-)
I really like these airport terminal trains. Thanks for posting this. I'm posting my video of the Monorail at Newark Liberty. I think it's impressive that the thing has no driver--pretty simple computers by today's standards I guess, but still cool! I'll try and get a video up of the train at London's Gatwick soon.
@mspboi98 If you really wanted to show him to his gate, you could get a Gate Pass from the Check In Desks. All you need to do is show a Picture ID I believe.
I LOVEEE the old DIA train sounds!!! they kick! the new ones (piano, guitar strum, etc.) all suck.... plus, are our fellow American's *really* that dumb to not understand what 'concourse' means.... I don't buy the whole 'All 'A' gates' thing...
im gona go drop a friend off so i was wondering how far will i be able to go with him till he leaves,,,,will i have to drive the train too to the terminal with him or only passareges get to ride it also how many security checkpoint will i have to go through im really confused!!! help!
If they let you get on the train as much as you like without having a ticket, I would stay on there all day and set up camp and everything. The chimes might make it sound a little brain tortureous!!! Im sort of a train freak!
I remember this one from long ago when I went to Colorado for a ski trip.
I LOVE those sound effects it makes before it speaks the message!
This clip was taken before they they made new voice recordings. On inbound runs, they used to have Pete Smythe's voice.
This voice (the old one) is Reynelda Muse, who was also a news anchor in Denver at KCNC for many years.
@480silverton yes, this was the original voice used from 1995-2007. that's when they changed it to the current one, but many people prefer the old stuff
This must have been awhile ago because they changed the voice. I liked the old voice (that one one) more.

I remember those little propellers on the walls and I went from concourse a to gate c I was heading home from summer camp in Colorado it was awsome

When you've been flying for 14 hours, and are excited to be on holiday, this tram is a gift from god.
=P

I always thought those little jingle tones would make awesome ring tones, whos with me?
Pittsburgh International always had these. the new airport, not the old one.
I'm headed to Denver airport from Pittsburgh this Christmas

I miss those old sounds, not really a fan of the current ones.

I live in colorado so I get to ride this thing alot. Its cool to look out the front and back of it
Great video! Have flown in and out of Denver International twice now and have ridden the tram. Very quick,convenient,and cool. Very nice Airport as well.
That's the best view- wish someone had a shot of that- especially underground with the lights from another train looking down at you.
Pittsburgh has something similar to this.

This is a Bombardier C100 or CX100
I just think that DIA is an amasing place for its amasing structure
I was on this tram once. It waits for no one! LOL
I miss the old audio too.
@lander77477 I agree! I miss the old music on the train. The new ones sound so stupid.
Also I wanted to add, that man who stared laughing when the train was accelerating sound dark. Idk why :/
I've been on this once! I can't wait until AeroTrain starts at Washington Dulles Intl next year!!!!!!!!!!
I rode that when I was out there for summer vacation! i remember recording that ride!
Circus music?
I've heard there are 5280 of them that symbolize Denver being the Mile High City.

I miss that too.
I've ridden a train at the airport in Denver twice. I've also done it in Seattle. So, I know what it's like, too.

this train is fun to go on I cant wait til june to go out of town this is a great airport though
I was just on this 2 days ago. :D
the tram at DIA is pretty fast
i like this persons voice for the tram better than Adelle's (sp?)
wtf is that music about..sounds like a casio lmao
I live in Denver. I'll have to ride the train tomorrow cause I'm flying.
I LOVEEE the old DIA train sounds!!! they kick! the new ones (piano, guitar strum, etc.) all suck.... plus, are our fellow American's *really* that dumb to not understand what 'concourse' means.... I don't buy the whole 'All 'A' gates' thing...
So what happens then if you don't get off at Concourse C? It said "all passengers please exit."
You know, it isn't a full train ride if you don't go all the way around. I wanted to see the aliens. :(
I went passed Concourse c once. nothin really happens other then turning around to go back to jeppesen terminal.
You go right to the train service station and then it just turns around
i know, i was there today and now they have the crappy piano sounds
ive been thru dia dozens of times and the train ride is great. i alway get a front spot so you can look down the tunnel as you go. hauls ass!
I should film his when I go....
ah thank you
@mspboi98 My mom was able to go with me if she had a ticket (not one you pay for) to go along. But I was only 17 at the time, so perhaps that's why.
DTW is the correct term actually but I agree 100% !!
im gona go drop a friend off so i was wondering how far will i be able to go with him till he leaves,,,,will i have to drive the train too to the terminal with him or only passareges get to ride it also how many security checkpoint will i have to go through im really confused!!! help!
we are going in march and i know we are gonna get lost lol
Who manufactures these things?
Wow that's a shocker
If they let you get on the train as much as you like without having a ticket, I would stay on there all day and set up camp and everything. The chimes might make it sound a little brain tortureous!!! Im sort of a train freak!
I rode on this on my way to boulder. The sounds were really annoying.
its all male voice now
Ya, colorado rocks.
This must have been awhile ago because they changed the voice. I liked the old voice (that one one) more.
