[shimmyhinnah]

Just got back this past Sat. I MISS PARIS! No wonder most Parisian women are slim, running up and down those Metro stairs and running to catch the trains, all the walking..I loved Paris!

[Patrix542]

[catchafire777]

[Patrix542]

@catchafire777 because you are used to this dirty crap :)

[catchafire777]

[dicf21]

EL METRO DE PARIS TIENE EL MISMO SONIDO QUE HACEN LOS TRENES EN EL METRO DE SANTIAGO DE CHILE, ES EL MEJOR SONIDO QUE HE ESCUCHADO EN UN METRO

[Thomas7917]

What do u think is better? Paris metro or London Underground?

[TlGBC]

In Paris, metro car lines run in between platforms!

[francophile34]

I never expected to get so emotional over something like this. I MISS PARIS!

[jaybee2425460]

@francophile34 moi aussi lol

[TlGBC]

@francophile34 why not? the paris metro is ossim! it's pretty dirty, but functional and easy to use!

[kikyoreincarnation3]

@francophile34 I watch Paris metro videos.. to ease the nostalgia.

I know what you're feeling.

[7NWO]

ils sont fous ces romains : o)

[dannybOMFG]

wow thats a cool sound

[sammydenyc]

the doors open while the train is still moving... O_O

[xjabi]

yeah this is one of the older trains where you manually open it so if you hold the handle open it'll open before the train stops, i've jumped of when it's still moving onto the platform, it's not that fast

[Kishida06]

@sammydenyc Yeah it's always like that, you can get out of the train a few seconds before it really stops.

[darren314]

These trains run on tyres lolz

[Xcokedav096]

maybe it that's why it's a good idea.. it keeps the ride smoother

[jayas12]

as far as sound goes, you really only hear the whisping of the tires. Can be loud esp with windows open but i find it less harsh on the ears than steel wheels. Montreal metro has all tires, ive lived there and in new york...prefer the rubber tires...but for some reason in paris i prefer the steel...go figure

[SV560A]

the steel is horrible when doing a curve.

[Ryantravisaol]

I live in New York and the steel is horrible on the old subway cars but the above ground passenger trains that we have for commuters are very comfortable and very, very quiet with steel wheels.

[jorasave]

this kind of subway is same as Mexico city that trais a MP-73 the Mexican models are NM-02 Nm-79 well even france have a lot of models there are only 4 countrys in all the world that uses that kind of tecnology France the creator Mexico Santiago Chile nd Canada Montreal

Great to see the "pneumatique metro" in France

[falkoben]

They must serve for a purpose since when I was there, you can hear the tyres.

[sebasdu92]

Devenez libre.

Pour tous eux qui sentent pris en otage, prenez des jours de repos, déplacer vous en vélo, habiter près de votre lieu de travail,.... vous verrez çà ira lieux. Puis si ya pas d'autre solution offrez-vous un scooter.

[LUCIALOVESMCR]

Yey :D It has tires!

[olympian2174]

it also has normal railway steel wheels behind the tyres, so what purpose the tyres serve is anyones guess!

[leninspapillon]

@ olympian2174 , its in case the tires burst. They run on tires normally.

[OMGLysses]

really? I thought it was for a sound reason. Though, the tires are just as loud as rails xD

[jupiter1716]

Metro trains were fitted with tires for good reasons: it provides better acceleration (though steel's catching up), and less noise (esp. in curves). Also, parts of this line are above the ground.

This technology is over 50 years old, but steel is catching up. The new MF-2000 rolling stock doesn't "squeak" in curves anymore and has decent acceleration, yet it runs on steel wheels, not on tires.

[jorasave]

and the tires are filled with nitrogen to avoid get hot. there are only 4 countries aroun the world that uses this tecnology in subways originally created in France Mexico City santiago chile and montral canada

I live in mexico and the travel on those terains feel great smooth like a bus je je
