Last week, we updated you on the latest developments of France’s new-generation high-speed trains, as their authorization for operation in France is approaching and the backlog for Alstom has grown to 160 units.

Earlier, we also reported on unit 1401 in Italy. Now, its sister unit has arrived in another country operating a 3 kV DC network: Belgium. Unit 1402 has the honor. Gwenaël Piérart caught the transport:
