Yarovsk Metro

The Yarovsk Metro is a metro system serving the Yarovsk and neighbouring areas. Opened in 1975 with 7 stations.

History
Plans to build an underground rail system in Yarovsk appeared in 1922, but The Great Depression destroyed those plans. Already in 1935, one of the promises of the new government of the state was the construction of a metro in the capital, but this was now prevented by World War II and the subsequent economic crisis. Only in 1973, the city government decided to build a metro system, the first line is located on the right bank of the Vaga and stretches from the station Galereya, in the north to Malinki, in the south.

Announcements
To facilitate of passengers orientation, station announcements and other information have been working in the cars since the start of metro service. When the doors in a car close: "Осторожно, двери закрываются" ("Attention, the doors are closing!"), the train arrives at the station, and passengers are informed about which station it is and whether it is a transfer (e.g. to other lines, commuter, and national railways services): "Пересадка на линию .../пригородный поезд/федеральную железнопутную сеть" ("Change for line .../commuter rail/federal railway network") or final station: "Конечная станция. Уважаемые пассажиры, пожалуйста, при выходе из поезда не забывайте свои вещи" ("Terminal station. Dear passengers, please don't forget your belongings when leaving the train") and also changes in metro services. Depending on the line, the announcer's voice and the jingle played before the announcement differ.
