Same. That and the old school door chimes on the trains.

Didn't those lights used to blink the same colour of the line that the train runs through?

And some elevators are broken like yesterday

If you find out you are at the wrong exit, you can enter the station again and exit from the other end. If you go in and out in under 15 mins, you won't be charged.

Also scammers leave a card on top of the machine and then when you load money onto the card they can get that money off of it because they're the ones who registered it...

Unwritten rule of Metro. That is if the escalators work.

IN aTLANTA TOO. MARTA.

wELL, Starting September weekends will be a flat 2 fee. I'm really looking forward to that. No needed to use my Senior reduced fare card anymore.

If everybody stood on the escalators it could be more efficient. I think it was shown in a study about the underground in London.

Japan does this all the time except it’s stand on the left to allow people pass on the right side

It has a particular smell, but it's not a bad one. The NYC subway smells awful

Next time, don't be afraid to ask a local! Often times folks will be busy getting to their train but we understand we get a lot of visitors in DC and it's nice to help out. I've often overheard a tourist asking about buying a card or which stop is near X and chimed in.

Low density = no profit . That is why delhi is constructing light rail in it's low density areas which will end at metro stations at the far ends

They run every 20-30-45 minutes on the weekends in downtown Miami, and it’s one route

@@njv1234 I can't speak of Miami's system , but comparing DC's to Toronto's , where I'm from, I would say that the trade off for expanding to a wider part of the conmunity is less service between trains.

Don’t call it a subway, we’re not New York and it’s not a restaurant. It’s called the metro for a reason

@@devontemccoy7721Metro is a subway

Same.

People do it here in nyc too son 🤦🏽

I am waiting for Darwinism to catch up to those people!

Punch them on the face

Now standing on one side and pass on the other is becoming discouraged in big cities as it slows down foot traffic, uneven weight wears down the mechanism, and cause injuries.

@@neubro1448 yawnnnnn

You're 100% right, although I will say that while they were doing the construction at L'Enfant (not sure if it's still going on) that it felt much more cramped and dark than Metro Center

@@victort.4798 That is because the lower level platform of L'Enfant Plaza is narrower at 36' 10" wide then Metro Center at 38' 1/2" wide. A typical platform in an island platform station range between 26' and 32',

DONT take a smartrip card if you find one on the machine like the guy said. Scammers will leave the card, wait til you put money on it, and then get that money off of it.

It *should be an unspoken rule everywhere. In Seattle, lots of people haven't caught on yet.

Same in London lol. I think it’s a worldwide unspoken rule

@@qwertymehta8342 Especially with those massive escalators in tube stations lol

Really cant tell if this is a joke

Chicago has a few union stations and it’s the center of most Amtrak routes in America. I wonder how DC is the busiest

@@joshuamontanez3851 because DC has one huge train station the is the second largest and busiest in the country. We have the only high speed rail in the country, and it will soon be replaced by a newer version with speeds up to 165 to 180. Metro carries more people than the El. And rail carries far more than Chicago. The Northeast Corridor is really the only area where rail makes sense. Between DC and Boston there are 55 million people. That a distance of only 440 miles. The DC-Baltimore are is getting close to 10 million alone, and will overtake Chicago. And no ... really, you don’t have more Amtrak routes. I’ve been on the rickety EL and once saw a man mugged. Didn’t take it again.

I can't speak for the West Coast, but I've always thought this was an unspoken rule all over the US at least regarding escalators in subway stations and airports😅I can add Atlanta (metro/airport) and airports in Texas, Charlotte, Jersey, Philly to the list!

@@BoiledBagels I never even heard of the escalator rule until I visited New York City and got yelled at.

@@brianna_lynch Dang, sorry about that. Figures that would happen in NYC of all places!

@@BoiledBagels no I wasn’t mad, I should’ve done research before going to NYC

The RFID chip in the card can be magnetized. No card has magnets in it. They're referring to either the internal chip or the swipe strip encoded information being wiped clean by an external magnet.

@@blue9multimediagroup there is no chip in the card, I work for WMATA that’s how I know this to be the case. There is a thin wire that runs along the broader that’s why you shouldn’t bed the cards as it the wire is broke the card will not work any longer. But I assure you it cannot become demagnetized. Also SmarTrip cards don’t have have a swipe strip like NYC cards.

@@kasseemsmith9175 somebody lied to you. There certainly is a chip embedded within the plastic. That's why they say not to bend it because it can break the components. All RFID cards have a chip embedded either at the bottom as used in ATMs, or within the card itself as used for contactless use.

Take a sideways look at a SmarTrip card next time and notice that it is 2 pieces sandwiched together. Your chip, transponder and receiver are all within the middle section and are paper thin.

@@blue9multimediagroup I know how it works and I know it can’t become demagnetized. I also know that Metro says not to bend because you with break the wire that runs around the edge that is why you can get a card to work sometimes by doing that.

Its cause British commonwealth countries do it opposite. They also drive from the right, which is why everything is flipped

@@bryansu5824 True that.

dc resident here, i've used both metrohero and the metro and bus app. both work well but the metro and bus app is a bit simpler. has a ton of ads though.

Because that's their design. Why does it matter?

haha

NY subways suck bad I even saw a man use it as his apartment

The metro in Washington D.C looks a lot better and cleaner than NYC Subways.

Fernando Ifill-Ruiz it is.

As someone who spent considerable time in both cities. I'ma give it to NYC, say what you will but they got more lines, more people, and 24/7 service. Love DC tho

DC has recently gotten rid of the 1 day and 5 day passes. Now it's just the reload card and are currently implementing smart phone adaptation.

Not worth it, unless you plan on riding to every metro stations in the system in one whole day.

Metro is pretty safe but I wouldn't fall asleep on it. Sometimes there's kids especially during morning rush hour and when school let's out. Usually only animals allowed are service dogs.

Brittany van pelt :) I envy the much space and the sky.

I’ve fallen asleep on the Metro. It’s easy to end up missing your stop that way.

Margot Robinson hope you won't miss the last connecting train when you fall asleep on the train. I've seen some people occupying a whole lengthy seat and sleeping, like they were living on the train.

Yumi Tokushige Thank God I’ve only fallen asleep in the morning. Missing my last connection would be a nightmare.

Just drive if you already have a car. Traffic isnt too bad and parking is fairly easy to find.

Depends on where you're staying and where you're going. You may want to consider the metro for seeing the National Mall or something so that you don't have to find parking and then walk back to your car. But otherwise there tends to be parking available

Drive.

The robotic voice is easier to understand but sometimes it says stuff with weird intonation. I think most if not all trains are 7000 series now (i.e. new trains)

DMV resident here, from my experience the Metro is safe any time of day. Keep in mind that DC is a big city, and all sorts ride the metro, so definitely stay aware of your surroundings, but as long as you stay aware and be sensible, you should have no problems.

I live near Annandale. No it doesn't. 💀
