The Metro is world class? Dark corridors stinking piss, covered with graffitis, overcrowded cars when it is not on strike.

- petre 6y agoLine automation a la line 1 and more recentry 4 may be the solution to strikes. Of course, employees will shut down the automation as well during a strike, no strikebreaking robots allowed to work. I liked the London Tube better though. Couldn't get lost in it, even if supposedly drunk and it seemed more reliable. Mind the gap!
- cm2187 6y agoAgree on the tube in London. And it has many more challenges than Paris, narrower, deeper and older tunnels. But somehow it feels like a more civilised crowd, people are queuing, not pushing (the narrow crowded platforms would be lethally unforgiving) letting people out first, the cars and tunnels aren't filthy (with the notable exception of Saturday night).
