The RER B is one of the five lines in the RER subway system serving Paris, France.
The line runs from Robinson (B2) and Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse (B4) to Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2-TGV (B3) and Mitry-Claye (B5)
- First inauguration : December 9, 1977
- Length : 80.0 km (49.7 miles)
- Number of stops : 47
- Traffic (2004) : 165,100,000 journeys per annum (figure only for the RATP section of the line)
Line B was the product of the connection in 1977 of the Ligne de Sceaux terminus, Luxembourg, with the Gare du Nord via Châtelet - Les Halles. In 1988 St-Michel - Nôtre-Dame station between Luxembourg and Châtelet - Les Halles was opened to provide connection with Métro Line 10 at Cluny - La Sorbonne, a station which had been closed since the beginning of the second world war and was entirely renovated for the occasion.
