Marseille vies with Lyon to be the second city of France. Having a population of 1.25 million, as well as being the gateway to the French Riviera, there is ample demand for a high speed rail connection with the capital.
This DVD is a cab ride aboard one of the fastest trains in Europe, running along a purpose built track across France. From the cab dozens of massive viaducts, tunnels and earthworks can be seen cutting a swathe through the French countryside with the exhilaration of high speed running adding to the impact of this fascinating programme.
Narrated by Alex Reid (English) and Camille Leblay (French).
