lille_flandres01.jpg (57335 bytes)

Lille, at the platform level of the Lille Flandres transfer station. At Lille Flandres unlike most other stations which have side platforms, there is "cross-platform" transfering from Line 1 to line 2 because Flandres has two central platforms.

At Flandres, there is a transfer to the tram system which runs underground for part of its trajectory.

lille_marbrerie01.jpg (62261 bytes)

Lille, street level above Lille's Marbrerie station on line 1, with termini at CHR B-Calmette and 4 Cantons. The Lille metro is similar to that of Lyon's Line D, a "driverless" system but controlled remotely, except it has platform doors above and underground. There are no ticket barriers in the Lille metro system.

At Marberie, the metro runs just under the street.
