The Evolution of the Rotterdam Metro network (1968-2022)

Animation showing the evolution of the Rotterdam Metro network from 1968 until 2022.

Inspired by Geoff Marshall's video: Evolution of the London Underground (although this a bit simpler than his one).

I made this because I was bored and wanted to practice with animating and video editing. It goes a bit faster than planned after rendering. The info text might be hard to read in time, luckily there is a pauze button. I got all my information from Wikipedia, so there might be mistakes.

The metro network has 5 lines at the moment and has a total length of 101km. There are 70 stations used by around 100 million people yearly. The operator of the network is the RET.
