A glance at the chart provided reveals some information about MRT systems in terms of the year established, the length and carrying capacity per year in six major cities, namely London, Paris, Tokyo, Washington DC, Kyoto and Los Angeles.
It is apparent that recently established metro systems account for shorter lengths than the older ones do.
Completing in 1863, the London system is the oldest of the systems listed and also the longest, extending for 1100 kilometres. Likewise, the second oldest system is also the second longest. Built in 1890, the Paris metro is approximately 594 kilometres in length. In stark contrast, however, the Kyoto and Los Angeles metro system- established in 1890 and 2001 respectively, are far shorter. The former covers a mere 11 kilometres and the latter just 14 kilometres.
With regard to yearly carrying capacity, the Tokyo metro is equipped to carry the largest number of passengers, at 1434 million. Meanwhile, at 850 million, the Paris metro has the second largest carrying capacity. The systems with the smallest capacities belong to Kyoto and Washington DC, transporting just 11 millon and 70 million people per year respectively.
