The Subway in Baltimore, Maryland, USA 2019

- Once the project was completed in 1995, the total cost for the Metro Subway was $1.392 billion.
The current system is 15.4 mi (24.8 km) long, including 6.2 mi (10 km) underground, 2.2 mi (3.5 km) elevated, and 7.0 mi (11.3 km) at grade level (with roadways separated). Eight of its 14 stations are underground, at depths of 52 ft (16 m) to 112 ft (34 m) below street level. Its elevated stations stand from 25 ft (7.6 m) to 28 ft (8.5 m) above ground.
When the system started operation, it became the largest single user of Susan B. Anthony dollar coins.
On February 11, 2018, the MTA announced a month-long closure of the entire subway system to complete emergency track repairs identified during a safety inspection. An aboveground portion of the system had already been shut down due to emergency inspections and repairs. The system reopened on March 9 ~Wikipedia

Thank you for your support. Comment below so all of us can have a productive and insightful conversation about transportation!
Baltimore needs MORE metro. I mean why have such a short line and not even want to expand it?? Maryland and Washington need to get a grip.
Actually, the plan was to have a system roughly similar in size to that of DC's, but a lack of political motivation and, more recently, Hogan have essentially made that impossible to date. An expanded metro/subway would be TOO awesome and transformative!
@@keify84 I COULDN'T AGREE WITH YOU MORE!!! The potential this system has along with other metros in the US. What a shame they're not being invested in as they should.
keify84 it wont be built anytime soon if ever
It's likely to happen. The cost of construction has far exceeded to original pricing and planning have since vanished. Expanding it to Morgan State University would be an accomplishment.
ummmm Washington is fine it has six lines and ninety something stations the almost got there stuff together the almost part is because those unreliable ugly 7000 series
Please more public transport videos from USA, especially subway systems.
Why not? What's wrong with our country as far as transportation?
This is the USA
It's like watching a public transport system in Africa.
I quite like the Budd Universal Transit Vehicle's used; the traction motors have a nice sound and I like the styling. The side looks 60's/70's retro and boxy, but the front looks more streamlined and modern.
I love them to I love everything about them
This is a pretty great Subway train in Baltimore, Maryland. This is a amazing video.
They really should expand this system. I dont know why they aren't planning more lines. I know people in Baltimore and they never use it. They would if it was more expansive
The subway could & should expand to Morgna State University and even White Marsh but the costs are astronomical.
They had plans for a crosstown Red Line, but Gov. Larry Hogan axed it.
That’s what the light rail link and buses are for.
Very low ridership, reminds of the Tren Urbano in San Juan because of it. No wonder why the system hasn't been extended.
Interesting that these system as well as the subways in Miami and L.A. use basically the same car model also that horn reminds me alot of BART
Same as Miami Dade Transit trains
Baltimore and Miami placed a joint order with the Budd Co. for cars in the early 1980s.
@Zanda Williams As someone who is spending time there now and from NYC, I'd say if you plan on living there it's a major convenience to own one. Public transportation is quite reliable on weekdays but weekends can be a major pain, especially Sundays.
Yup
Thank you, this is a great general video of Baltimore's metro system.
6:20 reminds me of a wmata 4000 series.
good video bro
i love the chopper controlled motor sound
THERE ARE AT GRADE CROSSINGS?
One at the Old Court station, but it's a crossing for an access road.
hey again😉
Chicago has grade crossing on portions of the Yellow, Brown, Purple and Pink lines
Cristian Martinez Yep they do. Never seen one but I know they are there. When I go to Chicago we ride metra,
almost reminds me of the BART in San Francisco
Ace it’s the same type of trains that they use in the Miami dade metrorail
Same
Too bad it's not the 90s, you would've gotten a glimpse of my singing group rehearsing on the train. Great Video, Great Memories.
Baltimore also has a modern and efficient light rail system to complement the subway.
The trains and station layouts remind me of a mix between Atlanta and Buffalo's metro systems.
Sounds like the buzzing comes from the middle of each subway car since I think that is where the chopper electronics are located.
Very clean system!
if you showed me this video, and told me this was Philadelphia , i would say "true". i live here in Philly , and we got exact same train cars , and very similar designed subway stations !
can you get some kind of wind screen for your camera's microphone? Any gust of wind is picket up and make unnecessary noise for otherwise interesting videos!
I wonder when the new trains and light rail trains are coming out for Baltimore.
Until we get our shitty governor out of power, they won't come.
@@charonsferryold 2020-2023.
Current Light Rail cars are being completely rebuilt by Alstom and new Hitachi subway cars (similar to Miami) are proposed to arrive in 2020
ummmm they won't ever and I'll make sure of that
+Wilma E they won't come even if the do get him out and EVEN THEN I'll be taking care of that and leaving the cars AS THEY ARE(maybe change some things of the tracks but THATS IT JEEZ !! WHAT IS IT WITH PEOPLE AND THIS NEW RAILCAR BULLSHIT JUST LEAVE THEM ALONE it's OK to take them to the yard and keep them fixed up but that's it ITS A DAMN SUBWAY!! IT SERVES CITIES AND OTHER SUBURBS THEY ARE JUST TRAINS AS LONG AS YOU GET PLACE TO PLACE FAST AND SAFE THEN THERE REALLY IS NO NEED FOR "NEW RAILCARS"!! JEEZ!!! THIS GOES FOR EVERY SINGLE SUBWAY SYSTEM IN THE WORLD!!! ITS NOT LIKE ITS SERVING A WHOLE DAMN CONTENT! JEEZZ!!
I wonder when we could expand this subway system to dc
north to timonium and south to bwi airport are good ideas.
Sam Sitar the Baltimore light rail already goes to Timonium and bwi international airport
Mookie slays where you from
I thought MTA was going to expand the subway system further to Hopkins Bayview medical center.
There was a plan to build a new light rail like called the red line that would travel underground through downtown and terminate at Bayview, but the MD governor canceled it in 2015
Εξαιρετικό! Εύγε!
WOW what a beauty, complete with screeching and scrapping, world class lol
yes that's what I love about my subway
don't you just love the way it does that nostalgic iconic tilt when it goes around curves my only peeve is that they are moving slower than usual and their third rail Protective third rail cover is resembling NYC subway's third rail cover which I do not favor
Jeremiah Smith - Never mind the third rail. The issue here are my ears, that screeching is very high pitched and can damage my ear drums lol 😂
@@norviato1 speak for yourself lol I love when the train does that "now you hear me now you don't" thing over the tracks and leaves the tracks with a faint hissing
Seems rather empty. I'm guessing not much ridership...
Ridership is heaviest during rush hours.
yeah it gets really crowded around mondawmin to Lexington market wich is downtown so yea it actually does have high ridership
Nice
The Baltimore Metro is like if someone took some urinal troughs and made them into a train
Baltimore Subway uses 4 instead of 6?
They use 6 during rush hour and special events. 4 during most other times and a set of two during late nights and/or to fill in headway gaps.
Small heavy rail system with only 1 line...a subway to hardly anywhere.
Anybody know the purpose of that spur off to the right (with no third rail) that the train passes at 01:55?
I don't know where that one is. Perhaps it is disused?
It actually connects to a csx freight train line...I always found that strange, cool and at first, dangerous. Anyway it doesn't have a use it connects to the freight tracks that run beside the subways bridge... I think somewhere it said that they used that track to deliver those subway cars to the system...
Old Court
Que trenes tan bulliciosos
Doesn't even look like a real Subway or subway cars those seats have cushion are these new did they just built a Subway in Baltimore
Baltimore's subway is 40 years old, and hard bench seating is not needed there because compared to any line NYC, not nearly as much people use it.
@@transitvideosbayarea no it's like thirtysix not fourty
410
🚇
MBTA, MTA NYC, PATH, SEPTA & CTA are better than this imo
They probably are but comparing those vast systems to a "strategic plan that fell apart" system is a moot suggestion.
Thank you for mentioning CTA
@skeatel watch your words
even Marta is better then this shit
@@DennisDiSantis marta can sit down somewhere if you wanna go there, please remember we call on Washington metro kinda as back up, as they also go to southern Maryland...and when you pair this subway and the one in DC marta, is a toy railway compared to them both so don't do that
$1.3 billion for this piece of shit (I rode it, so I know)
