SNCF AGC (Automoteur à Grande Capacité)
The first AGC trainsets ordered from Bombardier by SNCF have started tests. Here, a dual- power (electric 1500 V DC / diesel) trainset class X-76500 is passing as train 809107 near Quincieux, on October 22nd 2003. Those are braking tests, carried out between Lyon and Chalon sur Saône, currently only on diesel power, although the line is electrified. Digital photo by Romain Viellard (ceferist@wanadoo.fr)
