After operating on conventional lines before the line's opening, it began operation at a maximum speed of 260 km\/h with the line's opening in 1981. Two years later, with the extension of the line, the maximum speed was increased to 270 km\/h. This surpassed the maximum operating speed of Japan's Shinkansen at the time, attracting attention as the world's fastest train. After various updates to both the line and the trains, the maximum speed increased to 300 km\/h, and it continued to operate for a long time. Even now that the actual trains have been retired, the original orange livery remains very popular.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eKATO will be releasing a renewed version of the orange \"first-generation TGV\" TGV Sud-Est, which was the first European-type train model produced by KATO, to current standards. In addition to newly reproducing the unique shape of the AC pantograph, it is also possible to operate two trains coupled together, just like the actual trains. It's great for driving in combination with other TGV series trains, and it's also highly recommended as a collector's item.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eMain Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"word-break\"\u003e\n\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eReproduces the appearance of the trains from the mid-1980s, before the intermediate cars were fitted with air-spring bogies and the SNCF mark on the front was painted orange.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"word-break\"\u003e\n\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eReproduces the coupler cover with the \"SNCF\" lettering on the front and the distinctive front shape from the front window to the roof.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"word-break\"\u003e\n\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eNewly created AC pantograph (rear side) with a complex shape.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"word-break\"\u003e\n\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eBeautifully reproduces the train set's unique nickname illustration with printing (84 series... \"DIEPPE\", 08 series... \"ROUEN\").\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"word-break\"\u003e\n\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eEquipped with a GM-5 motor with flywheel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"word-break\"\u003e\n\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eHeadlights\/taillights illuminate (using warm white LEDs).
