Bay Area Rapid Transit [BART] Trains @ South Hayward (4/26/22)

[@Eric_Young2024]

I'm so glad they've put the horn sound of the LEGACY fleet, on to the new trains.😃

[@GamerRobYT]

3:32 sounds like a septa K-car a little bit

[@joaquinalejandrogranados9852]

Nice bart catch, are the best, its a good way to film it in the balboa park too and in the alvarado street

[@Acela2000]

2:49 reminds me of the 1000 series from WMATA (RIP 1976-2017)

[@wolfytheexplorer5829]

3:07 Almost similar the same propulsion of Los Angeles Metro/Subway Cars

[@lightningbot85]

The older train sets sound a lot like the R142A NYC subway cars.

[@davidng2336]

That’s because it’s Adtranz propulsion.

[@sonicfan8672]

bro it sounds like the 7 train

[@davidng2336]

The propulsion of the legacy fleet is made by Adtranz, later Bombardier, and now Alstom.

[@subwayrailfanner9537]

One sounds like a r143
The other sounds like a r179 mixed with siemens.

[@Keon21nature_east_bay]

I wonder why there is a loud electric buzzing sound coming from the old trains.

[@evanstonbalce9588]

That only comes from the C cars which are the flat-nose cab cars, I think they were built by a company that also makes helicopters

[@apr859]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the BART is some form of broad gauge correct?

[@utahrailfan1946]

Indian gauge, correct.

[@VigilanteAgumon]

Yes. Most of BART uses "Indian Gauge", which is 5 feet 6 inches, or 1,676 millimeters, while the more common "Standard Gauge" (used on the eBART line) is 4 feet 8 1/2 inches or 1,435 millimeters.

[@davidng2336]

I find it weird when the legacy fleet has an A car on one end and a C car on the other.
