TGV is a pretty fast bunny, isn't it?

574 km/h or 309.9 knots (for those not into shipping, this is 356.7 m.p.h.)
this train did yesterday in France (between Paris and Strassbourg).

WHAOW!
Not so much garlic-powered but running at 31,000 Volts it roared with bright
sparks from the pantograph and the train driver was grinning like
le chat de Cheshire

Well done! See a short movie on my site
