The arrival of the TGV high-speed trains shortened the trip from Paris to Marseille to less than four hours.

In 1993, a high-speed TGV train line was opened, connecting Paris with Lille in one hour.

The world speed record for conventional high-speed rail is held by the V150, a specially configured and heavily-modified version of Alstom's TGV which clocked on a test run.

The Paris-La Rochelle high-speed train ( TGV ) trip takes just 3 hours, and then taxis or buses can be taken to the island.

The TGV (, meaning high-speed train ) is France's high-speed rail service, currently operated by SNCF Voyages, the long-distance rail branch of SNCF, the French national rail operator.

However, on July 1, 2011 in order to save energy and reduce operating costs the maximum speed of Chinese high-speed trains was reduced to 300 km / h, and the average speed of the fastest trains on the Wuhan-Guangzhou High-Speed Railway was reduced to, slower than the TGV.

Figueres has been connected since December 2010 to the high-speed rail network with the start of services connecting Figueres to Perpignan via LGV, allowing direct TGV services to Paris.

Thalys uses two models of trains, both of which are part of the TGV ( train à grande vitesse ) family of high-speed trains built by Alstom in France.

His tenure as President was marked by a more liberal attitude on social issues – such as divorce, contraception, and abortion – and attempts to modernize the country and the office of the presidency, notably launching such far-reaching infrastructure projects as the high-speed TGV train and the turn towards reliance on nuclear power as France's main energy source.

SNCF operates the country's national rail services, including the TGV, France's high-speed rail network.

SNCF operates almost all of France's railway system, including the TGV ( Train à Grande Vitesse, meaning " High-Speed Train "), In the 1970s, SNCF began the TGV high-speed train program with the intention of creating the world's fastest railway network.

The high-speed train station ( TGV ) is 20 km from the city.

The Gare de Dijon-Ville is the main railway station, providing connection in one hour and 40 minutes by the TGV high-speed train ( LGV Sud-Est ) to Paris-Gare de Lyon.

In addition, Seoul and Busan are linked by a high-speed train line known as KTX, which was built using French TGV technology.

Tours is on one of the main lines of the TGV.

Versailles is served by Versailles – Chantiers station, which is an interchange station on Paris RER line C, on the Transilien La Défense suburban rail line, on the Transilien Paris – Montparnasse suburban rail line, and on several national rail lines, including low-frequency TGV service.

TGV lines and TGV technology are now spread across several European countries in addition to South Korea.

Other high-speed lines include the TGV ( France ), AVE ( Spain ), Treno Alta Velocità ( Italy ), Eurostar ( United Kingdom – France and Belgium ) and Railjet ( Austria-Hungary ).

France, building its TGV, avoided the problem by building a new rail network for high-speed trains which minimized curves, likewise Japan's bullet train and other high speed lines have necessitated new infrastructure.

In May 2011 the decision was taken to route the planned Bordeaux-Toulouse TGV and high-speed freight rail lines through the center of the Lefranc's landscape park.

They are used on high-speed lines, such as ICE in Germany, Acela in the US, Shinkansen in Japan, China Railway High-speed in China and TGV in France.

The Japanese Shinkansen and the French TGV were the first systems for which devoted high-speed lines were built from scratch.

High-speed trains like the TGV, ICE, AVE and Pendolino can only be run economically using electric traction and the operation of branch lines is usually less in deficit when using electric traction, due to cheaper and faster rolling stock and more passengers due to more frequent service and more comfort.

The technology was almost identical to that found on the high-speed lines of France's TGV system.

This sleeper type is in common use in France, and are used on the high-speed TGV lines.

* urban lines ( A to G ) going through Mâcon, Crèches-sur-Saône, Sancé, Saint-Laurent-sur-Saône, central Charnay-lès-Mâcon and Mâcon-Loché TGV train station on a regular basis.

* Transmission voie-machine, a train control system in use on TGV lines in France, Belgium and KTX lines in South Korea

The introduction of the TGV service in France in 1981, and its subsequent expansion, along with expansion of high-speed rail lines in other European countries led to still more TEEs ' being replaced by domestic high-speed trains.

Such lines were built to supply the French TGV.

* Unlike aérotrain, TGV could use existing rail lines in metropolitan areas.

The line was the fastest in Europe after French TGV lines.

SNCF The first TGV prototype, TGV 001, was powered by a gas turbine, but steep oil prices prompted the change to overhead electric lines for power delivery.

8 locomotives, having a maximum power of, were equipped for services up to and can work on TGV lines.

The generator is the motor from a TGV train, run in reverse of normal operation where instead of being hooked to electric power and producing rotation, it is rotated and produces electric power.

It is also the processor used on board TGV trains to decode signalling information which is sent to the trains through the rails.

This train was a streamlined multi-powered unit, albeit diesel, and used Jakobs bogies some 47 years before the advent of the TGV.

It is used by intercity TGV trains to the west and south-west of France including Tours, Bordeaux, Rennes and Nantes, and by suburban and regional services on the Transilien Paris – Montparnasse routes.

The tilting carriages are based upon Bombardier's earlier LRC trains used on Via Rail rather than the TGV's non-tilting articulated trailers, and the locomotives and passenger cars are much heavier than those of the TGV in order to meet the United States Federal Railroad Administration's different approach to rail crash standards.

TETRA was used during the French TGV train speed record on 3 April 2007 at 574. 8 km / h.

SNCF runs double-deck TGV cars on heavily used high-speed services, such as on the Paris-Lyon-Marseille line.

Variations of this design are now used in other makes of train, such as in the French TGV.

The train was developed on the basis of the transferred TGV technology, but more advanced technology was used for the new motors, power electronics and additional brake systems, while the passenger cars were made of aluminum to save weight, and the nose was a new design with reduced aerodynamic drag.

Another term commonly used to refer to both d-TGA and l-TGA is transposition of the great vessels ( TGV ), although this term might have an even broader meaning than TGA.

* Gare de Valence TGV is at the crossing of LGV Méditerranée and the Valence – Moirans railway: the top level is used for regional trains while the bottom level is used for high speed trains.

Synchronous AC motors are also occasionally used, as in the French TGV.

* Moûtiers, between Albertville and Bourg-Saint-Maurice ( Savoie ), () used by TGV.

* After the first oil shock, the fuel used by the Aérotrain I80 and TGV alike became costly for a time.

It is uncertain whether it would have been more expensive than the wheel based propulsion used by TGV.

The terms TGV and TGA are most commonly used in reference to dextro-TGA ( d-TGA ) – in which the arteries are in swapped positions ; however, both terms are also commonly used, though to a slightly lesser extent, in reference to levo-TGA ( l-TGA ) – in which both the arteries and the ventricles are swapped ; while other defects in this category are almost never referred to by either of these terms.

The traction motors are three phase synchronous type ( as used in the contemporary TGV Atlantique ) but with two three phase stator windings offset by 30 degrees.

The TGV Atlantique ( TGV-A ) is a class of high-speed trains used in France by SNCF ; they were built by Alstom between 1988 and 1992, and were the second generation of TGV trains, following on from the TGV Sud-Est.

They have also been used to haul the SNCF TGV Iris 320 test train through the Channel Tunnel.
