Trams in Amsterdam combine spoken geographical references with reminders to check in and out of the tram. I was approaching Concertgebouw on the tram 5 when the usual message played. It's meant to be something like "Concert hall. Please remember to check in and out of the tram using your public transport chip card.". On this occasion the tram said "Concert hall. Plea..." and cut out.
Several seconds later, after some kind of electrical whirring sounds, the tram said "Cunt".
I was shocked...had I heard that?
"Cunt" it said again.
Really?! I looked around to see if anyone else had noticed.
"Cunt"
I was becoming a little embarrassed. This tram clearly had developed Tourette's Syndrome.
"Cunt...
...Concert hall, Please remember to check in and out of the tram using your public transport chip card."
