TGV Duplex "Dasy" set (No 701, batch 6, 2007/2009), seen on trials on the Lille-Calais HSL.
<p>
This set is part of the very last batch of TGV Duplex sets (24 sets, order placed in 2005), and features new asynchronous motors, close to those of TGV POS sets. 
<br>
Those sets will be fitted with ERTMS-2, so as to run on the Perpignan-Barcelona HSL. Trials are also due in Spain in 2008/2009.
