I developed some sort of fanatism for Thalys numbers. I loved Thalys trains since I was a very small boy, I just recently found a picture of a very young me standing next to 4306 now that I-m a train driver myself, working in Cologne, I came across exactly that set. Amazing to see that these are still in Service. 4332 is another one of my favourite sets, as I traveled on it to Paris. Thalys is an amazing brand. Would love to see a Thalys duplex one day.

Ugh I'm getting triggered because I CAN NOT wrap my head around this.
So let me get this straight.
the RAIL OPERATOR (not the train manufacturer) is SNCF?
and then TGV is the line name?
And If so then who is the train manufacturer? I mean, i don't even know who made the Eurostar classes.
Or to just make my question easier:
Who built the TGV trains and what are they even called. -.

One technical question: when the train exits the high speed line in Brussels, does it switch from 25 kV to 3 kV (which would make sense, since the tracks become shared with all types of trains near and at the station, or does it remain on 25 kV catenary?

-dear travellers, welcome aboard. For the sake of everyone's comfort, we invite you to use your telephone on the platforms located at the entrance to each car- I don't get it, is there a restriction where I shouldn't use my phone?

That was a nice trip report. But at 1: 41 you said: this is a real customers services when you should of said: this is a real customer service. That is a nice video but just pay a bit more attention to your grammar.

Super. Thanks, it reminds me my travel Brussel-Paris-Brussel in 2018. As for the autor, I will never get tired of train travel but, here in Canada, we are still in the stone age when talking of trains.

I'm going to Europe for the 1st time ever, and I'll be by myself too. I'm so nervous. I'll be going the opposite way though. Brussels to Paris. Thank you for this insight on Thalys.
