Series
The MF 67 actually comprises seven different series trainsets, however two of the series trains were prototypes.
- Series A (now retired): 40 trains delivered to Lines 3 and 9 between 1967–1969
- One train in this series was that of the Zébulon, a stainless-steel prototype that never saw passenger service. It was used as a training train for many years until it succumbed to heavy vandalism in the late 2010s, it was scrapped as of 2011.
- Series B (now retired): 6 cars delivered in 1968 as prototype trains that never saw commercial service.
- Series C (now retired): 68 trains delivered to Lines 3 and 7 between 1972 and 1975.
- Series CX (now retired): 16 prototype cars that were fitted with "plug" type door openers, similar to that of the MF 77. These ran on Line 9.
- Series D: 363 cars that were originally deployed to Lines 3, 5, and 9 between 1973 and 1975. They now operate on Lines 3, 3bis, 9, 10, and 12.
- Series E: 56 trains that were originally deployed to 7bis, 8, and 13 between 1973 and 1975. They now operate on Line 10 (since the arrival of the MF 77 and MF 88).
- Series F: Deployed to Line 5 in 1974. Despite them being the newest series, they have suffered from excessive wear and tear (plus weather impacts due to them being stored in the outdoor Bobigny depot), they are now being replaced by the MF 2000.

Famous quotes containing the word series:
“In the order of literature, as in others, there is no act that is not the coronation of an infinite series of causes and the source of an infinite series of effects.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
“Mortality: not acquittal but a series of postponements is what we hope for.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“I look on trade and every mechanical craft as education also. But let me discriminate what is precious herein. There is in each of these works an act of invention, an intellectual step, or short series of steps taken; that act or step is the spiritual act; all the rest is mere repetition of the same a thousand times.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
