  3. I/ YesterdayA/ The early years (1900-1930) I / Yesterday : a history of the underground • A/ The early years (1900-1930) • First ideas of an urban railway system in 1845 • Decision to build an underground network taken in 1896, due to traffic problems and the1900 World’s Fair • - Project by Fulgence Bienvenüe, • who wanted to build 10 lines(lines 1 to 9 today)

  4. I/ YesterdayA/ The early years (1900-1930) • - 2 companies were running underground lines : • * C.M.P (Compagnie du chemin de fer métropolitain de Paris) • * Nord-Sud • The Nord-Sud company built 2 lines • * Line A, inaugurated in 1910, joining Montmartre to Montparnasse • * Line B, inaugurated in 1911, joining Saint-Lazare to Porte de Clichy • - C.M.P. bought Nord-Sud in 1930 • - There should have been a third line whichhas never been built • - We can still see the old decorations in somestations

  5. I/ YesterdayB/ To the suburbs (1930-1950) B/ To the suburbs Network in 1930 Network in 1950 8 lines went out of the city : 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12

  6. I/ YesterdayB/ To the suburbs (1930-1950) World War II forced many stations to close, and some never opened again

  7. I/ YesterdayC/ RER and others (1950-now) C/ RER and others In 1948, the C.M.P. is replaced by the RATP The network becomes overcrowded => need for new trains MP-59 in 1960 Sprague-Thomson in 1900

  8. I/ YesterdayC/ RER and others (1950-now) • Problem : underground lines stay inside Paris, and their stations • are close to each other • Solution : the RATP bought SNCF lines and built new undergroundtracks to create the RER. • - RER A was made by joining the "Ligne de Saint-Germain" and the"Ligne de Vincennes" and inaugurated in 1977 • RER B was made from the "Ligne de Sceaux" and then connected witha SNCF line going to Mitry and Aéroport Charles de Gaulle • Interconnexions still remain today

  9. I/ YesterdayC/ RER and others (1950-now) MF 67 : the train which started to replace the Sprague-Thomsons in 1967 The new line number 14 :Fast and automatic

  18. II/ Today II/ Today……

  19. II/ TodayA/ Tyres or not ? II/ Today : did you know ? A/ Tyres or not ? Some lines (1,4,6,11,14) use rubber-tyred trains instead of the traditonal steel-wheeled ones. Why ? - Less noise in the open air (useful on elevated sections) - Easier maintenance - Better performance : faster acceleration, smoother But : - More noise inside the tunnels - More heat dissipated - More energy consumption All lines should have been converted, but the project was cancelled because of its high cost.

  20. II/ TodayA/ Tyres or not ? And how does it work ?

  21. II/ TodayB/ Abandoned stations B/ Abandoned stations Haxo : should have been the link between lines 3bis and 7bis It never opened

  22. II/ TodayB/ Abandoned stations Porte Molitor : should have been used for the Parc des PrincesIt never opened

  23. II/ TodayB/ Abandoned stations Croix-Rouge :former terminus of line 10 Closed since 1939

  27. II/ TodayB/ Abandoned stations Martin Nadaud : has been included in the station Gambetta

  28. II/ TodayC/ Where does my RER go ? C/ Where does my RER go ? All RER trains have a name with 4 letters : SPOT, KRIN, PEPE, EFLA… What do those names mean ? - The 1st letter indicates the direction. For the RER B : A : Gare du Nord E : Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2 - TGV G : Aulnay I : Mitry-Claye J : Denfert-Rochereau K : Massy-Palaiseau L : Orsay P : Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse S : Robinson - The 2nd letter indicates at which stations the train stops - Special code : WxWy. Used for trains taking no passengers, going from one terminus to another. Example : WKWI (Massy-Palaiseau -> Mitry)
