Last month, a new voice was introduced on The Plane Train at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. This is in preparation for the opening of the new Concourse F and International terminal. The voice is by Sharon Feingold, the same lady who recorded the voice onboard the ATL SkyTrain. Also, they finally brought back sound effects.

Here is a video featuring the new voice:

So, here is the history of the voices onboard The Plane Train:
- Original computerized voice
- 1996 recorded male voice with sound effects
- 2002 recorded male voice by Bill Murray (not the actor/comedian)
- 2006 recorded female voice with NATO Phonetic Alphabet by Susan C. Bennett
- 2012 recorded female voice with NATO Phonetic Alphabet and sound effects by Sharon Feingold

Also, in 2005 there were two short-lived experimental voices: one female voice, and one male voice that identified the concourses with different names (rather than the NATO Phonetic Alphabet).
