french trains are always dirty and covered with mud etc. seems to be a combination of high speed and their soil and general track laying. lots of splashback when it rains. NS (dutch) had the same issue in the 90s but i see they have improved. SNCF generally runs their equipment into the ground. a japanese would probably faint if they saw the state of the tgv zooming around at 320kph. but despite all that, their safety record says cosmetics and rattling panels dont matter

Those coaches will be scrapped? --- Cuban railways is in urge need of coaches, and they operate French equipment too. I wish they sold them cheap or donate them to 3rd word countries to expand their lives. Cuba has been operating the old French TEE coaches for the past 20 years.

I love the Corail trains. They are comfy. I used them a lot in the late 90s when I was a student in Pau, travelling to either Toulouse or Bayonne / Hendaye. I also did a corail trip from Paris to Amiens and back and on the TER Bourgogne from Fontainebleau to Paris.

In Portugal, we still have Corail coaches on the Intercidades ( Intercity) service. Until a few years ago CP ( the Portuguese national railway company ) also used the same locos on the Intercity trains.

Nice! Equivalent to the Intercity coaches in my country (Portugal. The main difference being the stainless steel used in the Portuguese version.

I have travelled a lot, always preferring the trains, and these Corail coaches have the most comfortable seats I have ever seen.

Merci beaucoup. I purchased an old Lima HO Scale Trainset with SNCF coaches and was wondering what it looked like in real life.

Is it already known in the meantime when the Corail carriages will be replaced by new stock? I hope not anytime soon though: D

So funny, the intercity trains in Portugal are exactly the same. I never travelled on a french corail coach though.

Nice train ride and I totally agree. SNCF should refurbish these Corail carriages and not scrap them.
