besides provision of driver s cab on cc version of mp 89, key difference between cc , ca stock interconnecting gangways between trains. of cc stock equipped reinforced gangways, consists of solid interior panels. designed due fears curved platforms on line 1 (such bastille), storage of trains within tunnels, cause significant damage rubber gangways. however, trains (#s 02, 08, 09, 13, 18, 51, , 52) have been fitted rubber gangways since 2000, , 6 trains (#s 43, 45, 46, 48, 49, , 50) contain prototype gangways later implemented in mf 01 stock (from fr:mp 89). in 2012, train #12 retrofitted mf 01 type gangways upon transfer of train line 4, , in march, 2014, train #01 retrofitted.
because line 4 curvier line compared line 1, there concerns interconnecting gangways become damaged excessive wear , tear caused curvature of tracks , stations. planned of mp 89 cc trains re-fitted same rubber gangways mp 05. however, after modifying line 4 tracks better suit mp 89, plan cancelled.
