Very Fast train - made in France 

great video. covered all angles.. loved the overpass shot.. that thing flew

good train and good Tracks too.

bloody fantastic!!!

awesome , special rails must keep this machine on the track ?

I thought is was 0.40 and splat!..lol...and that train is mmmooovvviiiinnnggg!

ya,iknow that thank you

Very beautiful train the best EN57- made in Poland

1:26 very impressive!!!

The TGV only runs at speeds like this on its own reserved lines, which are well fenced - livestock on the line is not a problem.

We need trains like this in America!

very good

We need a few of these trains in England -

Great! I always preferred the TGV over "our" German ICE - particularly due to its flawless safety record.

impressive...

1:25 = impressive. Hopefully no one will be walking on those tracks when this train comes through, they won't even have time to look up and see it coming.

sounds like a jet fighter at 1.16!

Fantastic, we can only dream of sucha trrain in India ..

High speed tracks like this don't have level crossings, not only because of the risk of exterme damage at impact with 'something' but also the very long 'approach-signal' time for the level crossings.

French equipment rocks !

1:25 sick !!!

360mph... thats a badass motherfucking fast train!!!

The Ghan, man, the Ghan. The country the Ghan traverses regularly gets up to temperatures over 40 C (well over the hundred F). Hitting a heat buckle at 80km/h is dangerous enough - imagine doing it at over 400. Imagine also having to build TWO lines from Adelaide to Darwin - one for container freight, the other for HSTs. How expensive would that be?

@MrTruthpatrol Ah ok.... probably the US News didn't report about the numerous breakdowns of Eurostar trains in the channel tunnel. There were several breakdowns in december '09 and january '10 because of condensation in the train's electronics when entering the warm tunnel. A few hundred passengers were struck in the tunnel for several hours because of the Eurostar's catastrophic emergency responses.

that"s so fast like a aircraft from an airline!!!

Video featured in Utopia (the Australian one), S01E03

bring it on in Australia !!! i say

Everyone on board should have to wear a helmet. LOL

there was a jet flying overhead parallel to tracks

they need these in larger countries like canada where it takes hours to drive from city to city.

The driver looks like Luise de Funes!

1:23 to 1:30 is beyond words.

Excellent. You need a jet to keep up with that. When will these com to the US???

THAT'S SICK !

Same in Australia, we just don't get it. We recently built the Kahn top speed 80km (46mph). Whoohoo!

wow thats very fast

@Chapstick817 It is jet. With wheels.

I like trains :o)

*you are now leaving los angeles, and departing for dallas -hi, my name is- *welcome to dallas. we hope you've enjoyed your trip i swear you wouldn't even have time to take a dump...

@Chapstick817 its prob the JET thats flying above the train.....you can see it at 0:40

I think that this will be the future for distances between europen states. It's faster than to go to the airport wuth checkin and everything

@MrTruthpatrol Yes no doubt about that. I didn't challenge this fact in my comment. However it's somehow funny... on the one hand this enormously expensive fun project TGV V150 and on the other hand the Eurostar, build by the same company, which is unable to pass a tunnel in winter.

lol the people on the bridge must have been disappointed at getting a blurry picture

hell YEA!! man that just insane crazy fuking sweet.

No, it's not magnetic. Go read the "Tracks" section of the Wikipedia article on TGV. Also please take a minute to look at photos. Thanks.

damn fast train i ever seen..

holy shit that thing can cook!

look at TGVs accident history, it has a record far better than slower trains. Most of its accidents were at grade crossings. And it is articulated which keeps the train upright if it derails preventing jacknifing and flipovers.

man.. that's wild! lol

Have i got that right. That train did 357mph!!

thats really damn fast O.O

it sounds like a jet

357.1642 MPH that train was moving at!!!

WTF!!! wow its amazing

@NeDolM wow thats a great idea let's do that

lol, that's how I wanna get to work. XD

The japanese maglev is not in commercial use and is not a train by definition.

1:34 the train is so fast that the camera cant even film it :)

Jet sound

574.8 km/h

nice :-)

Spectacular Superaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaab

holy shit at 1:25!

1:26 shit that's fast!

As fast as Acella Exp! hahah

Where in France was this at and how fast did it go (in MPH)? Thanks!

i like the french - they have brilliant engineers and are very humanely people (and a few crazy ones are inventing trains like this gg). viva la... ;)

Finally the french achieved something.

what did you think they were aliens filming?

Take me out to the ball game

Oui Oui!!!

Scroll to 0:42, and watch the sky :)

top speed 357.6 mph 0.0 holy crap!!!

if that thing goes of the rails we are looking at a big problem

TGV wheels are monobloc - no spokes. Spoked wheels are so... so the century before last. Where've you been?

357.1 MPH!!!!

No, it's not magnetic. It's a "classic" train.

how many MPH.. if one little problem and big train crash so badly

Thumbs up if u thought those people were going to get hit at 1:24 x)

547.8 km/h = 340.387139 mph

I think at 0:36 a bug got squished lol

almost takeoff ;)

what do i need to set my shutter speed at to catch that?

we will soon

impossible upp here,, whit all the moose and lapplanders that dosnt no they have to get of the tracs. they must have a gigantic windshieldwiper.

TGV for EVEA!!!

brian france should go start NASTRAIN

what year did they go back to?

574 Km/h muhaha.

that train is running on Windows Xp.... omg that people is doomed

makes a change to Made in China!

yeah on the one hand the french can build trains going >500kph, that nobody needs... but on the other hand they build trains which are unable to pass a tunnel in winter... LOL

1:33 train gets lag

its like the speed of a fucking atomic bomb!!!!! =O

Google says: 574.8 km/h = 357.164161 mph

@cabo02 u wouldnt wanna see it in real life.... trust me

@geobo11 England are in europe.

it cant derail , its magnetic rails

Plane < Train

you need to go for leather!

Leave it to the French to make a train that can run away at such high speeds....
