Inside the Brussels M2 from Madou to Arts-Loi / Kunst-Wet, where I will transfer to the M1 for Centraalstation / Gare Central, which is a short walk to the Groote Platz / Grande Place and various seafood restaurants.
Newer Brussels metro cars have a digital overhead display and announce the next stop, sometimes in French and Flemish, but other times in either only French or only Flemish. For example, the train says "Arts-Loi. Correspondance Ligne un. Kunst-Wet. Aansluiting Lijn één".
Note, the station Arts-Loi / Kunst-Wet refers to an actual intersection in central-east Brussels, of Rue des Arts and Rue de la Loi.
Quanti ricordi! Grazie..

Nice video, great to hear the announcements. You are talking about Flemish, but in fact it is Dutch (Nederlands). Most people in Brussels speak French but because Brussels is a bi-langual city, all text and announcements are in French and Dutch. Grand Place is in Dutch Grote Markt... Platz is German ;-)
