the engine of the AGV are includ in the bogies! that good french tech very powerfull
Se l'Italia
è indietro in tutto (cosa non vera, ma vedo che di luoghi comuni ne sai parecchi) non vedo perchè io non possa dire come la penso. Se tu sei dell'idea che il TGV sia un ottimo treno, rimani pure della tua idea...io continuerò a pensare che è un treno obsoleto e che presto verrà rimpiazzato! bye
And the AGV will enter in service in 2010!!!
Design phase??? you must be joking!! the AGV is already on rail and the first serial train is in the Alstom factories.
The Velaro is faaar behind under EVERY aspects and its concurrent is not the AGV, but the TGV duplex.
70% of the high speed train in the world are French made... stop dreaming...
