Evolution of the Barcelona Metro 1863-2050 (animation)

  • The history of the Barcelona Metro starting from the opening of the Ferrocarril de Barcelona a Sarriàis in 1863 is shown in this animation.
    Note:
    Only the history of the FGC urban lines that later became part of the metro is shown.
    The FBS line (now L6) was initially built as a surface line but was gradually moved underground. This process is not shown in the video.
    L6/L7 does not integrate into the metro until 2003, but they were still considered to be "rapid transit" before the integration so it appears on the map since its inauguration in 1863.
    The section of L8 was first inaugurated in 1884, but the line does not appear on the map until 1996 when the infrastructure was decided to be upgraded to the metro standard with increased speed and frequency.

    Line 3 and 4 looks like one of those mini metro game where you ran out of spare lines and you have to drag existing lines through crazy twist and turns just to avoid a game over, thinking I’ll drag a new line to replace it when available but it never happened

      They do indeed! Even some other lines like 1 and 9 have a lot of curves. It looks as if the location of the stations was decided first and then the line was drawn after.

    • @AdrianRP1995
      @AdrianRP1995 Před rokem +22

      Why not both? The thing about Barcelona is that it being a coastal city with mountains at its back, it has an elongatep shape, so circular lines might not be as useful, but most cities extend more freely and end up having a kind of circular shape. Circular lines with radial lines is a desing that makes sure that you don't have to make more that one or maybe two tranfers.

      I studied there for two years and had to get from the àrea metropolitana (suburban zone) to the center every day. It is a nightmare. There are a lot of times where it is faster if, instead of taking the metro, you take the bus, either because with the metro you will have to change two or three times or because the line you need makes insane twists. There even are some trips that are faster if you do them by foot. Also, the "connections" in many cases aren't real. In Passeig de Gràcia you have to walk through an incredibly long tunnel before getting to change lines. Also, everything is made for tourists. You'll learn to hate the city once you are doomed to live there. But yea, I guess the map looks nice.

      PD: for example, L5 was going to be whats now L2 from Sagrada Familia to Badalona, so it was a straight line, while L2 would have been vertical, but after they merged early L2 with L5 they never turned it back :(

    I'm from Barcelona and this map explains in a good way how the metro system changed through the years.
    However, there's a couple of very noticeable mistakes:
    1st mistake: Minute 1:09, Fontana (L3) was NOT opened on 1924 with the Gran Metro opening, it was actually opened as an infill on 1925, at the very same time the extension from Catalunya to Liceu happened.
    2nd mistake: Minute 6:37, L2 opened from Sant Antoni to Sagrada Família on 1995. The extension from Sant Antoni to Paral·lel was on 1996, so Paral·lel DID NOT open at the same time as the stations between Sant Antoni and Sagrada Família (both included).
    I would also mention a lot of station names that changed through the years, but that's a minor problem/mistake, because the names shown here are the stations' current names.
    Another thing is that lines L6, L7 and L8 were NEVER considered part of Barcelona's metro when those were not having the line names and numbers that they have today. In fact, the trains on those lines NEVER had the Barcelona's metro logo at that time (and neither they do today), and also the material used on those lines have always been different from all the other lines. It's not a mistake including their evolution here, as nowadays they are considered part of the metro, but officially Barcelona's metro was inaugurated on 1924 with actual L3.
    And about the openings on the future, it's well explained how it's predicted, but those predictions may or may not be the reality in the future, because anything can happen.
    Overall, good video showing the evolution, but mistakes were way too noticeable.

      El error 1 sobre cómo se inauguró la línea 3 sin estar operativa la estación de Fontana lo desconocía, así que muy bien informado.
      En fin imagino que el año que viene (2024) aprovechando que se cumplirá el centenario del metro de Barcelona se montaran algunas exposiciones con fechas y fotografías sobre la historia de nuestro metro. Lástima que el tramo central de las líneas 9 y 10 aún no estén terminados para entonces

      Según la historia del Metro de Barcelona, Fontana se inauguró el 1 de Mayo de 1925, mismo día en el que se hizo el alargue de Catalunya a Liceu. Por otra parte, el tipo del vídeo no ha cambiado nunca los nombres ni ha puesto los nombres originales de algunas estaciones (por ejemplo, Roma (Sants Estació desde 1982), Aragón-Gran Vía (nombre anterior de Passeig de Gràcia, también hasta 1982, ya que la L3 para en Carrer Aragó mientras que la L2 y la L4 paran en Gran Via) o Joan XXIII (nombre que recibía la actual estación de la L2 Artigues | Sant Adrià mientras esta pertenecía a la L4 hasta 2002, cuando se hizo ese cambio)).
      Acerca del centenario, es posible que hagan circular de nuevo la famosa serie 300 (primer metro de Barcelona) que tienen preservada, ya que lo hicieron en 2014 a los 90 años del Metro, y no debería descartarse ya que FGC ha hecho volver a circular a "La Granota" en la línea de Pl. Catalunya - Terrassa-Nacions Unides (estaba apartada en Rubí).

      Although the wobbliness of the Busan subway comes from the lines detouring the mountains within the city. I think in the case of the Barcelona metro, they wanted to connect as many neighbourhoods as possible with a minimum number of lines.

The new Camp Nou station will be just in fron of the western gates (Accés 7)
