A rare opportunity of SNCF-RENFE cross-border platform at Irun (French sector). On the left, TGV 8515 from Paris-Montparnasse (Platform 12). On the right, Intercity 12202 (Irun-Madrid-Chamartin), awaiting departure on Platform 14, the only iberic-gauge track to serve the French sector.
<p>
As TGV 8515 had been running behind schedule, IC 12202 was due to leave from the French sector, rather than from the Spanish sector (further left, accross the building, off-pic), as is normally the case.
