OK so... there IS some kind of "High Frequency Rail" program or construction in the work?? They're seeking someone to build out the project.

This is a good video on the current issue and pushback from airlines as well:

"Getting up and running fast, instead of GOING fast" Yes, agreed!!

07:49 (rail trail)
Hm, but taking over biking pathways would be sad :(

Today I learn than #Alstom France give some extra money to employees that took their car every day to go to the office. 😱😱😱😱😱😱

On a newer #Alstom #train in #France, and am pleased to discover that after decades of innovation they've finally been able to deliver non-confusing bathroom controls! #UX

🇫🇷🚄☕️ Today's consist of #TGVINOUi № 8922 from #LeCroisic🇫🇷 to #Paris🇫🇷 was a classical #SNCF class "TGV Atlantique" (TGV-A) high-speed train built in 1991 by #Alstom. They were the second generation of TGV trains, following on from the TGV Sud-Est. We left this beauty already in #SaintNazaire🇫🇷. Of course, it was time for a quick coffee☕️ in the bar carriage 😍! #diningcar

🇫🇷🚄 This is a #SNCF Z-TER (Z 21500), an electric multiple unit regional passenger train, manufactured by #Alstom and #Bombardier in service as TER 858381, today's afternoon "Aléoup"-service by the "Pays de la Loire" region from #Rennes🇫🇷 to #Nantes🇫🇷. Operated in double-traction, these trainsets have had seen better days for sure but are still working smoothly. I really love the bar stools, because of the #diningcar-feeling 😍!

🇫🇷🚞🐋 This #Alstom "Coradia A TER" or #SNCF's class X 73500 "Baleine Bleue🐋" worked today's morning TER-service №55409 on #Brittany's scenic branch line between #Guingamp🇫🇷 and #Paimpol🇫🇷. It brought us safely to this year's #FestivalPaimpol "Chant de marin" 😍! #Bahnzeit #PL2023

#Bussoleno 🇮🇹 is a hub on the eastern ramp of the #MontCenis railway line. This is a busy freight corridor: a range of #SNCF 🇫🇷 #BB36000 #Alstom #Astride multi-current electrics are equipped corresponding to Italian norms and are hauling heavy freight trains across the border.

La ligne 10 du tramway d’Île-de-France ouvre aujourd’hui ! J’y suis allé hier, pour prendre des photos des dernières marches d’essai avant l’ouverture.

Ce sont des #Alstom #Citadis 405. Pour cette ligne d’environ 7 km, il y a 13 rames.

Alstom promet un tramway pour le rude hiver de Québec.

P.S. C'est EXACTEMENT le même tramway que celui construit à Ottawa et qui a connu sa part de problèmes depuis son ouverture, mais en version apparemment améliorée. On verra.

🚅🇺🇸🇪🇺🇫🇷 “Alstom has spent almost $600 million on building a US supply chain for its high-speed trains – more than 80% of the train is made in the United States, with 170 suppliers across 27 states.

“High-speed rail is already here. Avelia Liberty was designed jointly with our European colleagues, so we have what we need for ‘TGV-USA’” ⤵️

Alstom eröffnet neue Zentrale -

Am Autokreisel mehr Zugverkehr planen:

Die Aussicht darauf, dass dieser Zugtyp künftig für den Mittelhessen-Express eingesetzt wird, ist nicht gerade verlockend. Die HLB hat doch diese tollen #Stadler #FLIRT, warum wechseln sie nun auf den öden #Alstom #CoradiaContinental?

Le PDG Patrick Kron menaçait l'ancien ministre Arnaud Montebourg de virer 5000 personnes s'il n'acceptait pas l'accord de vente d'#Alstom

« Mais surtout, Monsieur Kron se prévalait de son statut d’enfant de déporté... ce que je n’ai jamais accepté. »
