To be fair, I think that CDG itself has improved quite a bit in the last few years (from the low point when the roof collapsed at 2E), but the RER seems to just continue it's decline.
Curious about this voltage change thing you've mentioned though. Did a quick search and couldn't find anything.

I have noticed a short pause at GdN, but never gave it much thought.

Got any more info about it?

Apart from the GdN concourse. That's never been right.

They don't even change drivers at GdN these days. Is it the voltage change on ageing stock that causes the problems, or just the latter?
