Excellent video!

the trains in london don't pick up speeds easily like the paris ones. these are quick.

[Edwiness]

It is because all Paris Metro trains are ATO (automatic train operation) and a few lines have rubber tyres, which means there is better acceleration. The Victoria and Central lines in London have ATO and are as fast, if not faster.

It's a lil weird on the station at 2:15, it's on viaduct but dives immediately into tunnel.

[cheejn]

thats because that station is located on a hill, 'colline de passy' (stations name: passy)

Superb video, especially the bits on the overhead line.

I have been on that closed station when it wassen't clossed on 1:05

[hkdiva2015]

That's Bir-Hakeim Station on Line 6, with a direct access to the Tour Eiffel. Periodically, the Paris Metro will have short-term station closures due to maintenance.
