The data given in the table illustrates the underground

railway

system of six different

cities

in different countries.

Overall

, only one city opened the underground system very early and had the longest

railway

route

.

However

, other

cities

opened it very later and the number of passengers is bigger than it. Some

cities

had

also

a very short

route

for the

railway

.

London

opened the

railway

track

very early in 1863

while

two other

cities

opened it after an interval of probably 27 years. The

route

to

London

was the longest

route

,

that is

394 kilometres but people in Tokyo travelled more every year. The length of the

track

of Paris was approximately half of the length of

London

’s

route

and started after 150 years of

London

. The

last

track

opened in 2001 in the city of America, Los Angeles, which was the second shortest

track

and about 50 million people travelled every year. Washington DC started its rail line 100 years after

London

, in 1976 and the number of passengers in it is almost 3 times of America’s other city Los Angeles.
