I love how the chime before the announcements on the old trains sounds exactly the same as on the Southern Electrostars

[Nikotren]

16:02 That section was out of service because they had discovered that the ground had suffered erosion, so they shut it down temporarily in case it collapses when a tram runs on it.

The old trains announcements chimes sound exactly the same as Southeastern and Southern announcement chimes (apart from 395)

Athens metro system is so unique. Plus the train announcement chime does sound just like the Bombardier Class 357, Class 375, Class 376, Class 377 and Class 378 Electrostar and Class 168, Class 170, Class 171 and Class 172 Turbostar.

5:57 Did you know the electric Athens Suburban trains (aka Proastiakos) are exactly the same family as the 185, 350, 360, 380, 444, 450, 700, 707 and 717? So the Siemens Desiro.

In Melbourne Australia the B class trams from the late 1980s have the same DC pulsing system or one that sounds the same! :)

[Techno-Universal]

10:05
In Melbourne Australia the Z class trams from the mid to late 1970s and the A class trams from the early 1980s use the same early DC pulsing system from ABB or it’s one that sounds the same! :)

Finally a video on my favourite Metro! Thank you so much Beno!

This also sounds like a lot of early VF drive lifts and early DC pulsed lifts! :)

The trains around the 12 minute mark sound a bit like the London Underground when accelerating 😂 also the tram sound a little bit like the Manchester T68A tram before they were sadly withdrawn

[AG-MTM]

the old metro trains remind me of London's Central line trains... but like those, they are in slight need of an upgrade

[trainluvr]

Doood! You done did it again. Maybe you are the Andy Byford of the future.

[bigtrainguy]

0:17 is that the same jingle as TFW/EMR Class 158s.
Class 377 (and 375 probably?).
HSTs and 395s?

[naturallyherb]

The Rotem trains sound exactly like the Canada Line trains in Vancouver and the Rotem trains in Hong Kong.

[DrCassette]

Interesting video!

"Please disembark from the left side of the tram" - seems like a rather strange translation to me...

[dsintel]

Beno have you ever thought on going to the North America for transport? The Miami Metro has some interesting new trains, as well as all the buildings and lifts. Toronto also has a lot of transport too.

i kwwp thinking im gonna get a sourthern rail announcement lol

[SummerADDE_Elevators]

Man, the line 1 trains had seen better days... I haven't seen them as bad as they are now back in my visit 2011...

[koishumiproductions]

Did you know that they are going to start constructing Line 4 on the Athens Metro soon?

[Pan]

What did you think of Athens' transport network overall?
