@@SomewhereInRussia And actually, the term "guillotine doors" used by Japanese is refer to those slamming doors of wagons, platforms, or even the automatic doors of 7-11.
@@nutzeeer So you can get your limbs stuck and cut off ?? I live in Madrid and here the metro has a button you can press when the doors are closing to open them for a few more seconds, same happens if the doors detect some resistance (your hand/purse is stuck) and open back up automatically for like 3 seconds.
Поезд не всегда с первого раза останавливается правильно, даже с учётом автоведения. Иногда приходится сдавать назад или продвигаться чуть вперёд. Если нужно сдать назад более чем на 3 метра, то это запрещено и поезд пропускает станцию.
St-Petersburg is built on a very soft and wet soil. They had to make the metro very deep, otherwise it could damage buildings on the surface by soil settlement and vibration. And stations of this design, comprised of three smaller tunnels instead of one large hall, are more reliable and easier to build at large depth in weak soil.
That’s true for the most part, but this particular station “Park pobedi” is not very deep at all, it’s one of those stations far south from the city center where there’s no rivers or other things that could intervene
@@noidea1903 «Парк Победы» - станция закрытого типа («горизонтальный лифт») глубокого заложения (глубина ≈ 35 м, по другим источникам - ≈ 45 м). Данный тип станции был впервые применён в общемировой практике метростроения. Впервые в мире по краям платформы были установлены платформенные раздвижные двери. Подземный зал сооружён по проекту архитектора А. К. Андреева и инженера Г. А. Скобенникова.
@@turinmormegil7715 yeah but they’ll continue to do it so this isn’t really a waste of money when people see it as a way for suicide or trying to severely hurt someone
@@Toxin___InterHalfer right? There's nothing to be alarmed of. Should be common sense to not stick your head in a wheat grinder, and even if it isn't, there are warnings for dummies. It's irrational to demand that every train station in the world become like this
Problem is, most agencies are either too poor to afford the expensive construction or has too many ongoing projects going on just to install this. Plus in America most drivers tend to go over station markers too
@@theseangle it's basically Japanese train fans/enthusiasts or trainspotters. They're different from other nerds in that they are willing to go outside
In fact stations of this kind are called "horizontal elevator". I like how this short comment keep blowing minds one month later))) UPD: 3 years later )))
I live in this city and have used this station hundreds of times. I've never heard of this door being called a "guillotine door." We call this type of station "closed type"
I didn't know closed type stations weren't even considered "normal" to begin with. This looks like the most generic station to me and I can't figure out what interests everyone so much.
@@trancos7641 this is literally moskow and probably one of the few pretty ones. st Petersburg and some parts of moskow are the only parts of russia that are remotely livable, the rest slums. so yeah, "they" are telling the truth
These doors are not water tight though, there are gaps about an inch wide on sides. In fact you can even catch a glimpse of the approaching train through them.
@@DiveTheseClips omg, that’s so cool, I have had no idea!! I was born in USSR in 1981, and we lived in Moscow until after break up of Soviet Union and I haven’t been back to Russia since then. We are in Australia, and I can’t wait to visit Moscow and Leningrad again....when I do come, I will make sure to peak between the doors and look for the trains :) Thanks for your reply 🙏
English comments: Japanese ppl saying how this could prevent suicide Me, Japanese: they're talking about the accuracy of the way they stop the train and how it looks like the interior of a crematorium
Not all stations are like that. And in our country, most residential buildings have at least five floors, so to commit suicide, it is enough to go out the window from your own apartment)
Помойму это из-за того что Питер на Венецию похож.. он на половину из воды состоит.. просто так не стали бы делать, это дико неудобно.. а если где большая нагрузка на транспорт, то вообще невозможно сделать.. и выглядит поэтому так жутко, станция на подводную лодку похожа..
Да, это так. В ту эпоху больше обращали внимание на надежность и долговечномть, а не на то, как бы потратить как можно меньше денег или не потратиить совсем. Многое, что построено при СССР сейчас бы вообще строить не стали потому, что дорого и не приносит прибыли.
@@Salman-Q our metro stations are clean and we don’t have habit of urinating in public places. Go check San Francisco and Paris, they do have that habit.
I imagined how he comes out, this meat grinder closes and started up the poop P.s. always want don't smile on the word: come, as.On lesson english language.I say my skill english
There's literally advertisement on door glass at the very start. Russian subways are full of ads, only they tend not to put them on the walls of the stations. In Moscow, ads are all over the trains (inside), passages, escalators.
Good job. Tracks should never be accessible to anyone on the platform other than the maintenance crew. Even Indian cities have been trying to bar access to them.
