Perhaps the switch between left and right running is because the lines converted from trams ran on the right because of former street running, while new-built lines base the running direction on the national railway system (which runs on the left like in France). A clearer example can be seen in Charleroi, where the tracks literally cross over each other on the level when switching between the central tunnels and the former interurban tram lines (The Tim Traveller made some interesting videos about this). Also in Paris, the metro runs on the right (as it was based on tram lines), whereas the RER runs on the left.
Maybe, I couldn’t find anything online but then again I didn’t dig too deep. That would be a good explanation as to why tho it makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
Actually, metros run on the left between Gare Du Midi and Roi Baudoin because The stations on this section of line have island platforms. Passenger can thus always exit the Metro on the right hand side. It was practical to do it after Gare Du Midi because at this station the Metro tracks are stacked.
Es innegable que todas las ciudades europeas cuenta con sistemas de metros que esta a la vanguardia de ofrecerles a las ciudades de primer mundo y las que están proyectando en la actualidad de llevar desarrollo tanto económico como social a las capitales y sus habitantes pero lástima que en mi ciudad bogota lo sigan atrasando por mucho más tiempo es inaudito y una vergüenza que la capital colombiana no tengamos una verdadera red de metros como debe ser ya es hora de no seguir dependiendo más de buses contaminantes y pensar en grande para llevar a bogota al futuro. Desarrollo.progreso y bienestar de los bogotanos

Frankly, what's the point of the blue light flashing at the bottom of the train as if it were a discotheque?
A fixation with technology, probably.
They use it at busy stations as a way to warn passengers of a moving train
