My unofficial 🇫🇷 #TGV diagram has got an update for 2026. Once again, not much has changed.
This is my personal attempt to unravel the #French high-speed rail system, if only a little. The highly radial network means that the diagram varies greatly in density. Around Paris, TGV Intersecteur trains have to be grouped together, but there is space for symbols representing important landmarks.

I made every effort to analyse the timetables carefully. However, if you notice any errors in the diagram, please let me know. Please note that I had to make some simplifications, such as primarily showing daily trains.

@larstransportworld wait, what's this part connecting to? it seems like it just disappears into nothing

@larstransportworld ohhhhh nevermind i see the intention here, but it got clipped by the white background on the pink paths and you can barely see it branching out

@ptrc You're right, following the Le Havre Intersecteur isn't very easy. It's one of the weak parts of the diagram. I have improved the design a tiny little bit in the meantime. Maybe I'll find a better solution in the future.

@larstransportworld interesting, thank you. I find it fascinating to see the shadow of the Paris - Milano line via Lausanne and Simplon (the route the TEE took).
