Description

For much of the postwar era, French society had a contradictory view of passenger trains, scorning them as quaint anachronisms on the one hand, yet also fearing their economic and social impact. All this changed with the introduction of first commercial run of the famed Train a Grande Vitesse (TGV) between Paris and Lyon in the early 1980s.

In vivid detail, Meunier describes the political, economic, and social factors that drove the development of the world's fastest, most technologically advanced train.
