In contrast to many other historical metro systems (such as New York, Madrid, London, and Boston), all lines have tunnels and operate trains with the same dimensions. Five Paris Métro Lines (1, 4, 6, 11 and 14) run on a rubber tire system developed by the RATP in the 1950s, exported to the Montreal, Santiago, Mexico City and Lausanne metro.

As connecting the Paris railway stations was an objective for the Métro, an initial plan was to then run the southern circulaire from Place d'Italie to Gare d'Austerlitz, to Gare de Lyon, and from there operate along Line 1 to close the loop at Nation.

Paris Métro Line 14 (French: Ligne 14 du métro de Paris) is one of the sixteen lines on the Paris Métro. It connects ‹See TfM› Saint-Denis–Pleyel and Aéroport d'Orly on a north-west south-east diagonal via the three major stations of Gare Saint-Lazare , the Châtelet–Les-Halles complex , and Gare de Lyon .
Stations are often named after a square or a street, which, in turn, is named for something or someone else. A number of stations, such as ‹See TfM› Avron or ‹See TfM› Vaugirard, are named after Paris neighbourhoods (though not necessarily located in them), whose names, in turn, usually go back to former villages or hamlets that have long since been incorporated into the city of Paris.
Paris Métro Line 5 is one of the 16 lines of the Paris Métro in Paris, France. It crosses the east of Paris from ‹See TfM› Bobigny–Pablo Picasso to ‹See TfM› Place d'Italie . It is the eighth-busiest line on the network.
