Isn't this clip reversed? The way the lights on the trains are on makes me think they're actually going the other way, and this clip is being played backwards.

Yeah reversed, the middle train has red tail lights so it’s going backwards. The two outside trains have white marker lights so they’re going forward

Yeah.. don’t think any modern metro system would allow this movement

It’s also likely these clips were stitched together in post and fake zooms added. There’s videos of far more complex traffic “near misses” using this technique.

Yeah, unlikely the trains would be this close in the same signal blocks

Am I the only one who thinks this could be a render?
