I heard some other English person commenting "I hope the TGV doesn't
come by on the tracks opposite!". Of course, their concernes were
unfounded because TGV only travels on its own dedicated lines.


That concern may have been unfounded on the particular line in question,
but (unlike the corresponding trains in Spain or Japan that are limited
by the track gauge), TGVs go many places besides the high-speed lines.


But if so they do not travel at 300km/h
