Sounds I am so familiar with - but they have changed the beeps and voice that signal opening or closing doors. I preferred this gentle sounding voice but apparently it wasn't effective in getting people out of the way.
Thank you for recording this.

This field recording does strongly remind me of the days when I would commute on the Red Line train into downtown DC. Even the sounds of the motors instantly gives me flashbacks. Very good recording overall.
