I keep waiting for SNCF to go ahead with their powered Duplex intermediate car concept. There are some two unit TGV Duplex sets that run without being separated from Paris to Marseille. Those sets currently lose a bit of space to the two powercars in the center and for a while it sounded like SNCF was going to get some duplex cars with gangways to a coupled set and motors to create 18 car walk-through trains. I believe it was called the TGV Duplex Grande Capacite project, and at least garnered an illustration on Wikipedia: When they ran the 350mph train with powered intermediate cars I thought it was a sign they were pursuing the TGV DGC project, but so far I haven't seen anything else on it. |
