Kyoto, in contrast, has the smallest system, for it only has 11 kilometres of route, which is nearly 1/36 of the route of London. The other three cities(Tokyo, Washington DC, and Los Angeles) have 155, 126 and 28 kilometres respectively 

Interestingly, Tokyo, which only has 155 kilometres of route, enjoys the greatest number of passengers per year, at 1927 million passengers. The system inParis has the second greatest number of passengers, at 1191 millions passengers per year. The smallest underground railway system,Kyoto, serves the smallest number (only 45 people).
