Talk:M1 (Paris Métro)

Locomotive hauled?
Were these trainsets hauled by locomotives? Peter Horn User talk 20:13, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, "motrice" is best translated as "motorcar", see fr:M1 (métro). I'll correct the article later. Peter Horn User talk 20:56, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately neither motorcar nor motor car will do the job. The best that I could find so far was Rail motor coach. So let us stretch it a bit, this "motrice" or "rail motor coach" has (a) traction motor(s) fed by an electric current from an external third rail instead of having an internal combustion engine on board.

 * The article Rail motor coach tells me that the term already has been used the term in the sense that I want to use it, albeit with reference to rail vehicles with a pantograph. Peter Horn User talk 15:51, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
