Paris RER banlieu system.
Was stuck on a TGV train who stopped for 30 minutes unknown reason in the middle of nowhere underway to Paris Nord.
I had to catch a plane at CDG.
First RER available was a direct train to CDG, took some 15 minutes, then needed a transit bus to the correct CDG terminal.
Check in rows were empty, I was last to check in.
No problem they said at check in, we know about the TGV system down and waited for you, lucky me...
I like Paris Metro most, love Montreal and hate Bangkok with is incompatible overloaded two lines, ordering more carriages 5 years too late....
Montreal you can ride the whole system at a single price.
