Montparnasse Local
Having covered trains in the east of the city on the first day, we turned our attention west on the second day and took a ride out from Paris Montparnasse to complete a circuit up to Mantes-la-Jolie. Whilst changing trains at Versialles Chantiers I was very pleased to see SNCF Z 5300 no.359 and 349 roll in on a stopping service to Paris Montparnasse. These ageing EMU's resemble New York Subway cars due to their aluminium bodyshells and are gradually being replaced by refurbished BB7600's for Transilien.
