The Trans Polar Railways TGX is the fastest train-set used by the company, (Trans Polar Rail is a ficticious 
passenger company operating in Scandinavia and Russia), made up of two identical halves, seperated by a
power car, many similarities can be drawn between it and the shorter ICX sets as many use common rolling
stock platforms, exceptr the driving cars are integral to the entire train set.<p>

TGX sets operate on a high speed route between Vladivostok on the far east coast of Russia, and Copenhagen in 
Denmark.  because of the long routes that the trains run on, stock on the TGX sets is more comfortable than 
the trains that use the shorter routes.<p>

Trans Polar originally wanted to use TGV Atlantique sets, but decided on the TGX set up, which is very similar in
layout to the now defunct British Rail APT.  A tilting train of 2 halves.  sophisticated leveling systems keep the
pantograph level when the entire train is tilting as it rounds bends. A top speed of 380km/h puts this set into
premier league.<p>
