Names of service

Like other Transilien lines the name of service consists of four letters, but is not always displayed on trains, but it can be seen on passenger information display systems. Taking ''GEPU'' (which is for a train that runs express between Paris-Montparnasse and Sèvres-Rive-Gauche then stops all stations to Plaisir-Grignon) as an example, the table describes how names of services are structured. There is also codes given to Chartres TER services, which are ''PACE'' towards Paris-Montparnasse, and ''CAPO'' towards Chartres.
