Railway Chant in York

Chant%20at%20York%20Station%201.jpg
While waiting for a train in the cathedral acoustics of York's rail station, the recitation of the destinations, times, and platform numbers coalesced into a chant-like melody. Torah cantilation? Gregorian monodic chant? Can you hear the distinct reciting tones? Why is the announcer so consistent with her pitches? Was she selected for this very reason? LINK to Youtube.
