Eurostar_Lembeek_1.jpg (62768 bytes)

TMST set, seen on LGV1 (Brussels-French border), on Eurostar 9116 (London Waterloo-->Bruxelles Midi/Brussel Zuid).

At this stage, this formation had already switched from TVM-430 to TBL, and was nearing the voltage change-over (25kV 50Hz AC-->3kV DC), pantos down.

Lembeek.

TMST-R_doorstep_1.jpg (44684 bytes)

Doorstep of a a TMST car.

As this pic was made on the Continent, all steps were in use.

Compliance with BR-W6 loading-gauge accounts for this large gap between the train and the platform, all the more as the latter is built to French standards (0.55m).

Paris-Nord.

TMST-R_doorstep_2.jpg (43631 bytes)

Doorstep of a a TMST car.

As this pic was made in Britain, only the middle and upper steps were in use, while the lower step remained folded within the carbody.

One can feel very well BR-W6 loading-gauge, with a very reduced gap between the carbody and the platform...

London-Waterloo.

TMST-R_doorstep_3.jpg (59685 bytes)

Doorstep of a a TMST car.

As this pic was made on the Continent, all steps were in use.

However, higher platforms in Belgium than in France (0.75m instead of 0.55m) mean that the lower step is fewer indispensable.

Bruxelles-Midi/Brussel-Zuid.
