What is the deal with the 2 year old child reading out the stop names on the tram? Is the sound system broken or did someone think that was a good idea?

Because the voice eats right through me!

I was on the 8 tram this morning - the children's voices have been replaced by adults!!!!! I too became irritated by that gibberish that came out of the loudspeakers - this stunt seems more reminiscent of something that might occur in America, not in seemingly-level-headed Poland.

It would be alright if it was a kid speaking clearly. But I just couldn't understand a word that they were saying, it was too high and there was basic pronunciation mistakes that even I picked up on. Good to hear that at least the 8 has gone back to normal!

It's some kind of promotion. Yes, the kids are annoying, but some of the other announcers are actors and singers, various 'famous' Cracovians. If you go to the end of the line (or get on at the first stop), for example in Bronowice, they tell you who they are etc. One of them is Grzegorz Turneau, a singer, who owns the Prowincja cafe on Bracka, and who has a famous song referencing the same street, "a w krakowie na brackiej pada deszcz" (and in Krakow on Bracka Street it's raining).
