Yes I have seen that train and the close-coupling, its a great MOC. I too
started with using a rubber band CC inside my train. But after several times
of taking apart my train just to place it on the track, I found a more simple
solution. Place everything ontop of the train. Sure this wont work for all
trains, design wise, but for the TGV it works. As that is where the power
connection betweent he cars is anyways.

The shared truck is just sitting under the cars.

You can see how the 2x2 round brick slides in the the truck. This whole setup
works great and alows for easy placement on the track. Especially if you have
a TGV with 10 Cars. :P

Very neat solution. If I built for real I might use it too since I can imagine
it must be nightmare lining up the wheels otherwise.
