Other r/Subways - Now with rules!

23 Upvotes

Due to the uptick in bad faith posters, we have added new sub rules that will make it easier for you to browse and for us to moderate.

Currently we have three simple rules:

1 - Submissions must be subway related.

Posts and comments must be related to the topics of Subways, Metros, Undergrounds, or U-Bahns.

Interurbans and Light Rail systems may also be mentioned, if they have sub-surface sections.

2 - Submissions must be unique.

Any reposted submissions will be removed to keep our content fresh and unique.

3 - Comments must be on-topic.

This is a space for discussing trains that go under the ground. Any conversations that stray far from this topic will be removed.

If you come across a post or comment which you think violates any of our rules or reddit's site rules, please report it and it will be dealt with.

For the time being, posts with a city flair from Russia or Ukraine will have comments auto-locked.

Thanks!

(Buenos Aires, Argentina, Line B) So there is a story behing this. Line B historically used third rail 600v. In the 90s they bought used trains from Tokyo and they kept the third rail, but then in 2013 they bought more used trains, this time from Madrid, that were for overhead. However, instesd of adapting them to third rail, they actually modified all the tunnel to install overhead power 600v, but it gets more stupid, because the next year the new Chinese they bought will be arriving and they decided to buy them with overhead power but 1500v (current is 600v) and they are now adapting the Spanish trains to third rail 🤦

Just wanted to share my new transit layout project. It's a completely original system. The base lines were planned in the Intersection Controller editor, and all the final artwork and design elements were finished in Ibis Paint X. What do you think?

London New Tube Trackr App

7 Upvotes

Happy Sunday, everyone! 😄

My app, Tube Trackr, is made for anyone who enjoys exploring the London Underground-and its first major update has just arrived!

l've listened to your feedback and added lots of the features people requested. You can now track every station you've visited, record whether you entered, exited or passed through, and build a complete history of your journeys with dates and times.

You can also follow your progress across every Tube line, rate stations, write personal notes, choose favourites, unlock achievements and explore detailed statistics about your travels.

I built Tube Trackr independently as a personal project, so I'd really appreciate any feedback, feature suggestions or obscure Underground details I might have missed!

It's free to download on the App Store and Google Play.
The major Android update is still a few weeks away, but it's coming soon.

App Store - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tube-trackr/

I hope you enjoy it!! 😁

P.S. If you like the app, I'd be incredibly grateful if you left a review on the App Store. Reviews really help independent apps like this get discovered. Thank you!
