TGV Réseau Duplex

Photos are very meh because i had too big of a lens for this distance and I wasn't expecting to see this rare of a train there

There are only 19 units of those made and they are mainly used on LGV Est (Paris - Strasbourg - German border), so seeing that in Rennes was unexpected

Read power car of a TGV Réseau Duplex departing from the Rennes train station. It's unit 612

@akalanka @rail_ those are Euroduplex, a later and fairly different model

@moof @akalanka no, they aren't

Euroduplexes are the 3rd generation

OuiGo TGV are modified Dasye (2nd generation Duplex)

@rail_@bark.lgbt @akalanka@masto.es were talking about Ouigo España. Not Ouigo France

@rail_ @akalanka here’s one in Madrid - Puerta de Atocha - María Zambrano that I photographed and rode in April 2024.

@moof @akalanka i assumed they were the same model as Ouigo TGV in France

@rail_@bark.lgbt @akalanka@masto.es it also has Spanish language signage inside including branding the top floor as “cielo” or sky, and the bottom floor as “tierra”, or earth. Their advertising makes a number of puns about being equivalent to flying because taking you to the sky. And of course “el cielo” is the Spanish word for heaven.
