ooh actually this would make a really cool flow diagram

i could define the velocities as always being towards Paris

would have to think about what to do about flows that cross though πŸ€”

And you still want to cut TGV Paris M - Toulouse M back to Bordeaux SJ?
@pglux.bsky.social not really related to what i was saying but yeah, it's daft to use a TGV when Corail can do it in more or less exactly the same time for ~zero opportunity cost
Toulouse is πŸ‡«πŸ‡· 4th largest urban unit, with 1.1M people. One of the fastest growing metros in πŸ‡«πŸ‡·, along with Bordeaux, Nantes and Rennes. CDG+ORY - TLS is πŸ‡«πŸ‡· busiest ✈️ air route. And one of the busiest in πŸ‡«πŸ‡·. Passenger numbers are on the rise. Cutting back TGV in Bordeaux SJ wouldn't make sense.πŸ”œ
Corail stock is knackered and unreliable. And the OxygΓ¨ne units on order will be too few to increase frequency on Transversale Sud. Right now, market potential would require 1 tph. And easily 3 tph with LGV SO1 from 2031. πŸ”™
