File:Sydney Metro 360 camera walk through new metro train

Description
Come for a walk through Sydney's new metro train and take a look around in this 360 degree video.

Sydney Metro opens in the first half of 2019 in the city’s north west.

A new generation of metro trains will run every four minutes in the peak in each direction on Australia’s first fully-automated railway.

Customers won’t need a timetable – you’ll just turn up and go.

These fast, safe and reliable metro trains are fully-air conditioned with new customer benefits like multi-purpose spaces for luggage and parents with prams, as well as wheelchair spaces and priority seating in each carriage.

All metro stations will be fully accessible with lifts and level access between platforms and trains, making it easier for more customers to use public transport.

Technology like platform screen doors – used for the first time in Australia – will keep people and objects away from the tracks, also allowing trains to get in and out of stations much faster.

From the north west, metro rail is being extended under Sydney Harbour, through new underground city stations and beyond to the south west.

In 2024, Sydney will have 31 metro railway stations and a 66km standalone metro railway system.

There will be capacity for a metro train every two minutes in each direction under the Sydney city centre.

Make sure your device supports 360 video and don’t forget you can view this in Google Cardboard and other VR headgear.
