  • Giant Hubs Episode 6: Moscow Metro - The most punctual metro system in the world!
    It is one of the biggest and busiest metro systems in the world: The Moscow Metro. During rush hour the trains are running every 90 seconds to transport around 9 million people daily - that makes 2.3 billion a year. Which means: it is the busiest metro outside of Asia. Nevertheless, the trains are at 99,9 % on time - world record for the most punctual metro system!
    This is made possible by a sophisticated operating and maintaining system, innovative technique and a perfect match from all departments.
    Every line of the metro is running completely self-sufficient, on its own system of rails and underground stations. Disruptions on one line do not affect the other ones.
    The Moscow metro is also known as the most beautiful metro system in the world. 44 of its 200 stations along the 346-kilometer-long rails are world heritage sites. Built in the 1930ies these stations look like palaces - to preserve them in good condition means a big effort.
    In World War II, the metro served as bunkers for the inhabitants of Moscow and the stations were used as military bases. One of the reasons why Moscow Metro is one of the deepest in the world! Even during the war, the Russians keep on expanding their metro system - and they still do. There are construction sites all over Moscow, so it is also one of the fastest growing line networks.

      I've been to your city and St. Peterburg in September 2014 and I love it. I keep telling to my friends to go and visit because it's a place I would go back again. At that time I didn't see any transliteration in metro system and in the most part of the city of Moscow but it wasn't a problem for me. My only regret was not speak a little more russian than the obvious to interact better with you guys. My visit worth every penny.

The other modes of public transit were also pretty decently integrated, so bus stops and trams etc. were also never too far away from a metro station.

    Not only Moscow Underground but the trams, buses on the ground work precisely. The taxi network is very efficient too. 99% of Moscow resident are very hard working. I used all forms of travel in the city when i was there last year. One thing which missed in the documentary that the train announcement inside when station is approaching is bilingual in Russian and English. As soon as you deboard a train, the signage below are also having english names of the place in english scripts. In just one hour, i got used to this efficient metro system. Only thing was between stations, you have to walk a lot. Another thing was discipline in the escalator and boarding and deboarding into trains. I liked the city. Well no one talks english and is good other wise Russians would have taken every job on earth.

I actually had an accident in the Metro, I was riding the train and somehow my earring fell off and I lost it.. or so I though.

      And you know, what?
      A immediately came back and bothered all the metro-workers around to help me.
      They gave me some kind of telescopic grab-stick so I can pick up my wide-spread stuff between the train-arrivals!
      I managed this metro-fishing quite well exclude some things, that rolled too far.
      And then, I had literally to lay down on the floor, 2 policemen hold my legs and i stretched as far, as my whole body can to reach the most distant things, hah!

      It actually depends on the line. 90 sec is a Soviet standard still used. Actually, it can even be faster than 90 secs during rush hours, I often catch intervals up to just 40 secs when I travel back from my university siring the evening rush hour. In the morning though, on Sokolnicheskaya line, another train comes just 15 secs after the other left, but it stops by on the station forboarding purposes. One of them comes full since it travels from the very south part of the line, the other one comes completely empty since Salarievo station is the station where overcrowding begins on Sockolnicheskaya line, so they send an empty train that doesn't take passengers untill that station right next to the other train. The busiest station of this line is, of course, Yugo-Zapadnaya, because there are hella lot of Universities located, but on Salarievo, the train stops by for longer since that's where the boarding truly begins

      @@victornderu143 Well Paris is a whole different story, it is very old and the residents wanted to get rid of the trams in favour of the metro. The network is more than great for only 2 million residents. The problems of the metro are the aging rolling stock (some are from the 50s), the dirty air due to the air-filled tires of the trains (which can also be considered as an advantage due to the smoother ride) and many VERY dirty stations. Most problems are the result of limited funding for the system - which kind of could be expected for a city of this size featuring such an extensive network. Paris metro definitely has the potential of being a world-class metro system, if funding for the maintaining costs increases.
      For comparison to Paris you could take Hamburg, whose metro only has 93 stations for s similar city population. And many people think that this is not enough. And Hamburgs system is old as well and they got rid of their trams as well - which leaves the city at a lower-class network.

If anyone wants a scale of how deep the metro there is, well, for most of the stations, you would spend more time on the escalators getting down than waiting for the train. And you could safely skip a train and wait for the next(I've seen that there are some newer stations, mostly towards the end of the lines, that have a much shallower depth, maybe due to economic reasons)

      Soil in the city center is an engineer's nightmare. You have to dig deep, if you want subway to last long, and even after that you have to be very careful… Like with unfortunate “Lesnaya” - “Ploschand Muzhestva” tunnels, which inspired a first Soviet disaster film :)

Just come and see yourself: Moscow has got in fact one of the best and most modern transportation systems (and what's important - one of the biggest) in the world

      @@johndavidson4127 In Switzerland the delays for intercity trains are quite common on a daily basis. The light metro versions in the Swiss cities, or trams, run more reliably. But still, the short intervals between the trains/trams, like in Moscow metro are a dream. This, of course, have to take into the account, that the transportation system in Switzerland is not underground, except for transit tunnels, thus more susceptible to the external factors, causing delays. The only European metro system, that is close in its efficiency, elegancy and cleanliness to Moscow metro is in Athens. It is very small, and is not comparable in scale, but for such a small system Greeks made it almost as perfect, as in Moscow. Switzerland is amazing for it's mountain trains and funiculairs, that is for sure. There are small metros at high altitude ski stations, entirely built in the mountains, with very steep angles. So - no uniform comparison could be made. Each country has it's best in something, then it comes to transport. I do not know, if it helps to maintain the stereotypes with these details, though :-).

That's why the staff had to close the exit completely - they usually leave one escalator to the ground at this time. Same with the evening rush hour.
