The TGV 001 was a groundbreaking prototype that laid the foundation for modern high-speed rail. Designed in the late 1960s, it broke speed records and pushed the boundaries of what was possible for rail travel. Although it never saw commercial service due to the 1973 oil crisis, its legacy lives on in the electric-powered TGV trains that dominate French railways today. Join us as we explore the history, innovation, and ultimate fate of this remarkable machine.
