Paris commuter train has carriages transformed to resemble rooms from the Palace of Versailles - the center of political power in France from 1682 - King Louis XIV moved from Paris until the royal family was forced to return in October 1789 during the French Revolution. The main rapid transit system in Paris, the RER, has undergone a dramatic refurbishment - the train carries the colours of the Palace of Versailles. The RER C line runs between the Palace, 20 kilometers southwest of Paris and the center of the capital. The royal deal was made between Palace officials and rail operator SNCF.
