What about it? Is it not the run-of-the-mill Western European capital transport network?

  At 250 miles of track, it covers a much greater area than any other European (sans Russia) capital. The second largest is Madrid at 180 miles, and Paris is 140 miles.

    > Paris is 140 miles That's only the subway; a better comparison would include at least parts of the RER network, which covers 360 miles; let's say half of that in a range comparable to London subway. And London is much more spread out than Paris, so comparing mileage is not a very interesting metric. Subway station density is another one where London “loses”. Personally, I found London subway OK, with stations a bit too far away for my taste. The bus network however is better than in Paris, especially their frequency of passage.

    But Paris has those modern, wide boulevards that are far more walkable, for strolling Parisians, and marching armies alike.
