Day 18: From France to Switzerland through Italy
Chambery in the morning
Visiting Montmelian once again
SNCF Class BB 75000
SNCF Class BB 22200, version with 25kV and 1.5kV
SNCF Class BB 7200, version 1.5kV
Back at Chambery, something different than SNCF
Alstom Prima, 37502 and 37512, Europorte
Class 37000 has support for 1.5kV, 15kV and 25kV thus covering both France and Germany
Frecciarossa train arriving from Italy
This train is supposed to support 7 different countries besides Italy: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, and Switzerland. This particular train is supporting Italy and France. I guess when the new high-speed tunnel from Turin to Lyon is open, there will be possibilities to operate this train type from Milan to Brussels, Amsterdam, and Barcelona.
TGV arriving from Annecy
TGV from Italy
Here at Chambery, both trains are coupled before continuing to Paris
