Re: On-board music instead of announcements
  Mark Skinner

As an example of creativity, on my first trip to Bydgość in Poland, I
travelled from the main railway station to my hotel at the Opera stop.

The announcements were all standard this stop - next stop - name style
until we got to the Opera stop. As we slowed into the stop, they played
slow pastoral music. When later I travelled past, they played the William
Tell Overture as the tram accelerated out.

In Gdańsk, at Opera Baltycka, they sang the stop name to a Bizet tune
(Toreador).

In Kraków, the usual "Final stop" announcement was modified at the
Cementarz (cemetary) Rakowicki terminus to be decidedly creepy.
