Examples for the automatic announcement system on the next gen BART cars
Submitted by Sulaco516 on Wed, 07/23/2008 - 6:52amHere are my example phrases for the automatic announcement system.
"This is a Dublin/Pleasanton-bound four car Blue Line train. Next station (or The Next Stop Is): Powell Street."
"Now approaching Powell Street. Connection is available to MUNI bus lines and MUNI Metro Light Rail Lines. Doors will open on the left side."
"Now approaching Dublin/Pleasanton, the terminal station. This is the last stop on this train. Attention, passengers, please leave the train at this station. We appreciate your patronage and thank you for riding BART."
Traction motors on the 1st gen BART cars prior to rehabilitation
Submitted by Sulaco516 on Fri, 07/11/2008 - 11:28amDoes anyone know what the Direct Current (DC) motors were on the 1st generation BART cars before they were rehabbed?
I'm guessing Westinghouse (the same company that furnished the 1st ATC system for BART) model 1463 direct current traction motors.

Can anybody tell me who it was that built them?
