A quick note! The reason WHY it's the least used is becaue the RATP only count people coming IN, not coming OUT. And as trains only head west heading away from the centre of Paris, passengers don't come here if they want to head east into the city centre. If the RATP counted exits *as well* it may be very different ....
This kinda explains a lot, I was wondering why, of all places, people would abhor using the Metro in Auteil... Wich would be the least-used if one-way stations were not counted?
Went into the comments to say exactly that, but you beat me to it !! Of course now we expect a series of least used on each line as well as all other European Metros !
RATP doesn't count passengers exiting the metro because you only touch in, not out in Paris. correct me if I am wrong, my knowledge is dated, it's been a while since I went to Paris
Bakerloo = lines 10, 11 and 12. Old stock, lesser used, have extensions planned that probably will never happen. Central = line 1. Busy, frequent, touristy, goes out of the city both ends. Circle = line 7bis. It's not a circle, the train never shows up, no one likes it. District = line 4. It's a nightmare. H&C = line 9. Loads of stops and painfully slow. Jubilee = line 14. Shiny and modern even though it's from the 90s/00s, there's 4G signal, but the trains are super busy. Metropolitan = line 8. Goes way too far out of Paris. Northern = line 2. It's a mix of all worlds. Piccadilly = line 7. Old and noisy, trains are busy, the wait is always super long for the correct branch. Victoria = line 13. Living hell, there's ALWAYS a signal failure, and the colours on the line diagram match. W&C = line 3bis. Everyone forgets its existance. Elizabeth = line 18. It' won't see light of day before 2065 and neither should be considered subway lines.
It may change in the next years for line 11, since the extension to Rosny Bois Perrier will open in 2 or 3 years, with new stock. Line 8, terminus Créteil Pointe du Lac : "Yay, I am the farthest station with the 6 km distance between me and the closer door of Paris !" Metropolitan line, Amersham station : "Hold my beer."
@@bentilbury2002 The Tenth Circle of Hell year-round is Line 13. It's the Central line, but infrequent, much less touristy and more "popular", always suffers from random delays, and infamously absolutely overcrowded. Most people just tend to avoid it.
Well, now I have a dilemma on my hands, I have a folder for saved Geoff videos, and a folder for saved Tim videos, and I have to decide which folder to put this in 😅 What a delight to see two of my favourite UA-camrs in the same video! 🥰
Those doors terrify me to no end, the way they close was surely inspired by the guillotine, which was still in use in France when the MF 67 were introduced.
Three types of trains have these handles in the Paris Metro : - MP59 (on the famous metro line 11, Geoff talks about it in the video...) - MP73 (on lines 6 and 11) - and MF67 (on lines 3, 3bis, 10 and 12) MP trains are on tyres... and unfortunately MP59 and MP73 trains will soon be replaced on lines 6 and 11 by the newest MP trains (MP89, MP05 and MP14) aaaaaaand... for "regional" trains/for the suburbs... VB2N coaches are the last trains which have these kind of handles. These old trains will also be replaced soon... Other metro/train lines in Paris have newer push-button doors... unless their doors open automatically! All the metro lines which have platform doors (lines 1, 4, 13 and 14) don't have buttons or handles on their doors because all the doors are opened automatically at each station. Basically, all modern trains in the Paris Metro open their doors automatically, that's why MF01 (on lines 2, 5 and 9) also have automatic doors (without buttons/handles)
@@JeremiCzarnecki The S-Bahn in Stuttgart had such doors too until about 20 years ago, they look more dangerous than they are, I've once got stoken hard when I jumped in in the last second, it didn't hurt, even though I was a small kid.
Back in July 2019 my university choir recorded a CD at Notre Dame d’Auteil, and you can hear the metro trains running underneath the church (which was obviously less than ideal recording a CD!)
Fantastic collaboration, I really enjoyed watching this video. The Paris metro is old, cramped, tiny and weird but it has lots and lots of character. Each time I visit Paris, I enjoy traveling on the metro. Lines 10 and 11 have one of the oldest rolling stock of all the metro system. If you ever plan to make a video about metro train noise, don't forget to include the excellent noise of the MP89 rolling stock on line 14 and especially the noise of Z20500 trains on RER C and D.
ok someone who appreciates the sounds of the metro as much as I do! I lived in Paris for a few years when I was a kid so I'm very nostalgic for the metro especially the sounds and maps.
@@thegreenonions @darkknight8139 To enjoy it on youtube put "sounds of the Paris metro/RER" (in French) and you will get quick results. I made some on my channel including the famous Z20500 series.
At the same time it's very funny because in addition we go up, and quite strong. And they were lucky, they had a "noisy" trainset, which mews which adds to a "speed effect".we can hear it perfectly
When I was a student, I used to live next to Église d'Auteuil, and I took line 10 and its loop almost every day. Thanks for showing me again this area of Paris!

@@geofftech2 The first time I opened the door a couple seconds early, I stepped on the platform and nearly fell on my face because the train was still moving kinda fast.
@Geoff Marshall Better to wait for the Clac! , and lift the handle just after, because the slamming is the spring that is stretched.The door will open much faster than if you lift the handle well before ... @fire surfeur And yes!!! unlocking the doors allows the doors to be opened below 7km / h, hence sometimes the surprise of tourists because the train still rolls a little (the driver let it "slide" to the end of the platform). There are experts used to getting off even when the train is still running a little.
Wow! Without knowing it was least used, I stayed in a hotel by this station during a visit to Paris in 2018. I remember thinking how odd it was that the trains only went in one direction. Thanks for the video, Geoff!
First time I was in Paris you didn't get free maps, you had to buy one. Early 70s I think. And you could still ride some of the old trains with manually opening doors which shut with a crash as the catches engaged. We rode on Line 6 which is elevated and crosses the Seine near the Eiffel Tower, on a train where you could sit behind the driver's cab and look ahead through a window. I was about 15 and in my element. Not so sure about the rest of the family!
Love this video of you and Tim. Following Tim for.a few years now and just started to browse through yoir videos. Keep on making interesting and funny stuff
I love the classic handle door on Paris trains. I love opening it. When I was on holiday here I always opened the door before the train stopped so satisfying
Uh...that doesn't feel terribly safe. Altough probably safer than this one train car (regular train) I was travelling on one day which had its rear door open by itself.
Yes! I usually lift the handle when I feel the train is slow enough (so one or two seconds before standstill) and see if the doors will release early or safely. ;)
@@vaclav_fejt A real door open by itself is maintenance issues but these train doors only release at like 1 second before it stops so not too harzardrous
Tim, if you ever visit Lisbon, we have a Guimard entrance on one of the Metro stations, offered by RATP in 1995. It's one of the south entrances of Picoas station in the Yellow Line.
1) I'd say Ligne 14 is more equivalent to the Victoria line in terms of ability to shift people effectively, and frequency. 2) When is "Coupe du Monde des Lignes de Métro" starting? I predict Ligne 14 vs RER A in the final...
I rode on the Paris rail network back at the start of 2020 when I visited Disneyland. Went on the RER C to Bibliotheque Francois Mitterand, switched to the M14 and then at some point transferred over to the RER A to get to Marne-La-Valee Chessy where the park is. This was my first time riding on a major city's public transport network and it was really fun, loved the autonomous M14 trains (and obviously loved my time at Disneyland). Also the Pass Navigo was cool, I still have mine so I'll just load it back up when I go to Paris again and need to use public transport!
It's cool that Geoff came to France, where i actually live, to explore parisian subway which is a part of the best network ever with RER, Transilien, Tramway,...etc Moving to Paris is very easy at the most of the time.

Hi you two! I've just slogged through the first ten days of an original Wet Winter Storm™ lie we used to have 25 years ago in the San Francisco area. I know, I said to the computer, I'll watch some Tim Traveler and Geoff, and then some Geoff Marshall and Tim. They'd never do a video in the rain. This'll cheer me right up. lol
I'm looking at the rain and the grey skies and a bit of fog covering the Eiffel tower and maybe I'm just missing Europe but my first thought was What a beautiful day.
@@helloahla239 It's because they couldn't. The policy of the RATP is that when there's already a station the name stays. And there is a station of the RER C there that the line 14 joined and it's called Saint-Ouen so the name didn't change !
Hi Geoff - I've loved all your videos to date, so when you teased a while back that a Paris Métro video was forthcoming I was very excited. So a big thanks to you (and Tim too) for this and keep them coming! The Paris Métro is an incredibly unique system with a deep history, lots of quirks, and interesting hidden features. The other segments of Lines 9 and 10 in the area around Église d’Auteuil comprise some of the more fascinating sections of the Métro, including the never completed station at Porte Molitor. And since you highlighted the signature Art Nouveau entrance gate designed by Hector Guimard, it is my understanding that his studio was also in the 16th Arrondissement, which may explain the variety of entrance styles that have survived in this area. Thank you again for your continued work!
4:36 Geoff I don't know if you've been to Singapore but the MRT over there also has exit maps which are even better that Paris. Some stations over there are so massive that you can end up blocks away from your destination if you turn down the wrong corridor and also many road crossings don't allow pedestrians to cross.
I've only visited Paris once but used the Metro and RER quite a lot during the trip and found it very easy to use. The nearest t station to me linked up with he RER to Disneyland which was really convenient.
Oh come on Geoff, now you got to do that in all European cities! 😂 I’d be glad to show you around Lisbon’s metro and trains! Great video, I love both channels 😃
Having now seen the video, I am still just as delighted about it! You so obviously had a lot of fun! Loved the fabulous Bakerloo Brothers at the end! 🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I would say that in Paris Metro, stations are much more closer to each one (except for extensions in suburbs and line 14 which is a more express one), and that it really does not go as far in the suburbs than London Underground does (while the Metropolitan line goes to Amersham outside of Greater London, Paris Metro barely reaches Créteil in its maximal point, a town in the suburbs quite close to Paris if you look on a map). This might change with the future lines (15, 16, 17, 18) and line 14 extension to Orly airport that have been acted a few years ago, which go further in the suburbs. Also, while London Underground makes an effort for accessibilty even in older stations, Paris Metro... meh. It's really a big shame since only the line 14 is (fully) accessible to wheelchair users, all the others does not care (except for the most recent ones in suburbs, but it's not official since not indicated on the maps). There is a study to make the line 6 (the one with the most outside sections) accessible too, but it may take a long time to reach that goal.
@@GodAtum Les trains malgré leur vielleisse sont très confortable. A noter que tous les metros parisiens soit près de 600 rames devront être changés entre 2015 et 2030. A noter que ceux montrés dans la video doivent être remplacés par des trains plus modernes en 2021-2022 pour la ligne 14 et 2024 pour la ligne 10.
How interesting. The last time I was in Paris, in March 2019, I went to mass at the église Notre-Dame-d'Auteuil. Little did I know that in order to get there I had used la gare la moins fréquentée.
I really like looking out of the front of the driverless line 14 trains. The tunnels have two tracks so you can see the trains with people inside coming towards you like pods from some science fiction film.
Finally Tim showed an interesting place in Paris that I *have* been on. Not while living there, but I was there a few months ago, because the PSG stadium is close to there so we took that line, with the amazing place where the line suddenly splits in two! 🙂
It was really funny to see you two make a video on this subject as I live in Auteuil myself and even though I very rarely use the Église d'Auteuil station, I go through it pretty often when on line 10. I do go to Mirabeau often though. It's funny seeing UA-camrs I like (and not even french ones!) talking about somewhere just around the corner! 😄
Visited Paris many years ago and wanted to see THE statue after going from Versailles. We found the station name "Javel" very funny because it is also a Norwegian word. It literally means "yes, well", but it is closer to "weeeell" and alternative to "ok"
A quick note! The reason WHY it's the least used is becaue the RATP only count people coming IN, not coming OUT.

And since you highlighted the signature Art Nouveau entrance gate designed by Hector Guimard, it is my understanding that his studio was also in the 16th Arrondissement, which may explain the variety of entrance styles that have survived in this area.
Thank you again for your continued work!
4:36 Geoff I don't know if you've been to Singapore but the MRT over there also has exit maps which are even better that Paris. Some stations over there are so massive that you can end up blocks away from your destination if you turn down the wrong corridor and also many road crossings don't allow pedestrians to cross.
Least used mrt station would be an interesting video.
Considering that they all have the bare minimum of wheelchair accessibility and toilets
@@shawnli4746 I suspect it would be in Punggol somewhere
Geoff! There are more lines than just line 11 that are rubber-tired if you didn't know. There are lines 1, 4. 6 and 14 too!
I've only visited Paris once but used the Metro and RER quite a lot during the trip and found it very easy to use. The nearest t station to me linked up with he RER to Disneyland which was really convenient.
Learned to know you by the video of Tim, I really enjoy your content, keep bringing the good stuff!
I enjoy ALL of Tim's videos! Of course, I also enjoy all of yours, Geoff.
Oh come on Geoff, now you got to do that in all European cities! 😂 I’d be glad to show you around Lisbon’s metro and trains! Great video, I love both channels 😃
This is a most welcome development. Loved the collaboration and the Paris metro content. More of this please!
Congratulations on the Sub total 👍Nice channel - I've been watching awhile! 👍
JARDINS PARTAGÉS !
Am I doing this right?
I think I was looking for this comment! But maybe in English:
ALLOTMENTS!
2 of my favourite youtubers in my area, what a pleasure, thanks for this video, sadly though I was working at the time 😢
I enjoy 100% of Tim's videos.
I love Tim's channel! Obviously I'm already subscribed to you both!
Great collaboration Geoff
Having now seen the video, I am still just as delighted about it! You so obviously had a lot of fun! Loved the fabulous Bakerloo Brothers at the end! 🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Can we have a video comparing the differences between the London Underground and the Paris Metro? What's better and worse about each?
I would say that in Paris Metro, stations are much more closer to each one (except for extensions in suburbs and line 14 which is a more express one), and that it really does not go as far in the suburbs than London Underground does (while the Metropolitan line goes to Amersham outside of Greater London, Paris Metro barely reaches Créteil in its maximal point, a town in the suburbs quite close to Paris if you look on a map).
This might change with the future lines (15, 16, 17, 18) and line 14 extension to Orly airport that have been acted a few years ago, which go further in the suburbs.
Also, while London Underground makes an effort for accessibilty even in older stations, Paris Metro... meh. It's really a big shame since only the line 14 is (fully) accessible to wheelchair users, all the others does not care (except for the most recent ones in suburbs, but it's not official since not indicated on the maps). There is a study to make the line 6 (the one with the most outside sections) accessible too, but it may take a long time to reach that goal.
@@sylvainldgo7361 Points noted, But for comfort and convenience Paris wins hands down.
Yes please!
Price too, less than 2€ for a single
@@GodAtum Les trains malgré leur vielleisse sont très confortable. A noter que tous les metros parisiens soit près de 600 rames devront être changés entre 2015 et 2030. A noter que ceux montrés dans la video doivent être remplacés par des trains plus modernes en 2021-2022 pour la ligne 14 et 2024 pour la ligne 10.
So pleased you finally managed your collaboration. Off to check out what you did on Tim’s channel.
This is going straight into my Favourites playlist even before I start watching! Cheers to both of you
Excellent collaboration Geoff, and Tim now has a new subscriber! 👍🏼
It's a conspiracy - of the best kind!
It's always enjoyable whenever any of my favorite 'tubers' collaborate.
Well done! Tres bonne!
How interesting. The last time I was in Paris, in March 2019, I went to mass at the église Notre-Dame-d'Auteuil. Little did I know that in order to get there I had used la gare la moins fréquentée.
This was an amazing colab. So many laugh out loud moments.
Tim and Geoff! Am I dreaming? 😍
I liked this, more than I expected.. and that's even as a Tim Traveler watcher!
Now I want a "least used" world tour!
Wait, wasn't Tim in Jay Foreman's Unfinished London as that man creating 32 boroughs?
Yup! That was recorded back before Tim moved to Paris.
That’s him! His channel is brilliant ….
Really enjoyed this one Geoff! Agree about the noise and the mechanical door openers.... :)
Thank you for point out Tim's channel, it's a excellent combination of tourism, education, and humor. We are enjoying his content immensely.
Such a good collaboration. Would love to see them go to the Budapest metro.
I am SO EXCITED for this crossover! 🥳
I loved the energy of this video, please come back to Paris and do more!
Gorgeous. Years ago I stayed at my friend's flat in the 16th district, so got to know its nice atmosphere and odd metro line quite well.
I really like looking out of the front of the driverless line 14 trains. The tunnels have two tracks so you can see the trains with people inside coming towards you like pods from some science fiction film.
The collab I've been waiting for! 😀
What an amazing team up!!! Well done, Gentlemen. This was brilliant!!!
OOOOOOOOOH WE ARE IN PARIS NOW! YAY!
Finally Tim showed an interesting place in Paris that I *have* been on. Not while living there, but I was there a few months ago, because the PSG stadium is close to there so we took that line, with the amazing place where the line suddenly splits in two! 🙂
I always loved the way the door buttons are the little handles you lift.
It was really funny to see you two make a video on this subject as I live in Auteuil myself and even though I very rarely use the Église d'Auteuil station, I go through it pretty often when on line 10. I do go to Mirabeau often though.
It's funny seeing UA-camrs I like (and not even french ones!) talking about somewhere just around the corner! 😄
Visited Paris many years ago and wanted to see THE statue after going from Versailles. We found the station name "Javel" very funny because it is also a Norwegian word. It literally means "yes, well", but it is closer to "weeeell" and alternative to "ok"
Bizarre that Javel means bleach in french
so,some sorta "yeah,well ..." in english kinda
