TGV or airplane ?

A test-run campaign is currently taking place on the brand new Eastern TGV Line, and the TGV has already beaten the 1990 world record (which was at 515.3 km/h), reaching 557 km/h, however, it%26#39;s not official yet (it has not ben registered with an official trustee).





But here%26#39;s a video : TGV or plane ?

That%26#39;s truly awesome. Thanks.

Loved it!!! Thanks, SHD!





BTW, for those who think in furlongs and the like, 557 km/h = ~348 mph. Pretty amazing...

Blimey - that%26#39;s the fastest double decker I%26#39;ve seen. Even faster than a number 15 routemaster at Aldgate passing a bustop on a rainy night.





(a London reference there for the uninformed)
