Thanks for the kind words. From looking at this site.

You can see that the TGV Atlantique has 10 cars, 3 1st class, 1 bar car, and 6
2nd class. I have looked at tons of pictures to try to get the right amount of
cars. :P At over 10-ft long its just so impressive to see the TGV go around a
layout.
The only reason I used those BURPs for the nose, was mainly for simplicity. I
still have plans to redo the Engines. I am just having trouble getting the look
right. Plus I just got a whole mess of the 2x2x2 trans black/smoke wall panels.
So maybe I will rework the windows on the cars too.
I hope some day that we can gather all these TGV models together and run them at
a show.
