Hi ! Great video ! Small remark concerning the train, it is in fact a TGV Réseau, and not a TGV Atlantique. I don't know how Mehano did their work lol. In real life, they are differentiated by their number of cars (8 for a TGV Réseau, 10 for a TGV Atlantique). But when the number of cars is not identifiable, we look at the number on the motor cars. If it's between 301 and 405, it's an Atlantique. If it's between 501 and 554 + 560 or 4501 to 4530 + 4551, it's a Réseau ! Obviously it's a positive remark, happy to see a train from my country on your channel!
Trivia : - The SNCF logo appearing on this train is the 2005-2011 SNCF logo. - No more TGV have this livery anymore. The last one was the TGV Duplex 283, who is actually in Strasbourg to wear is new livery "Carmillon". - The first and fourth pantographs are for 1,5kV, and works always together when they're raised. The second and third are the 25kV ones. Only one work when the TGV is running, and it's the farest from the heading locomotive. - No TGV runs with American train (just kidding (actually no but you understand me right ?))
Mdr il n'ont fait aucun effort sur le TGV atlantique 😂, pas les bon pantographe sur une des motrices, le logo inversé, le numéro et en plus ils ont livré le carton avec 2 rails manquant 😂 C'est drôle de voir un américain découvrir les train Français
Et pour info il reste seulement la motrices et quelques voiture du TGV 325 qui est encore bleu, préserver à Mulhouse On ne va pas parler des 4500 qui perdent complètement leur livré carmillon et qui retrouvent la livré Bleu Lacroix
As a french teen, I was grumpy when I saw that one of your first european train was an I.C.E but now with this masterpiece in your collection it's ok 😁
I had the ICE 3 set from Mehano. It was quite a good set overall. The power car was reasonably heavy and had all wheel driven. The couplings were pivoting, and quite freely, which prevented the derailing. The unpainted parts don't look good though. The finish is very plasticky on these. And the pantographs made of plastic aren't very nice either, because they're too brittle. I think they would've been better if they were made from metal. The steel track provided isn't very goot either because it's prone to rusting. Unfortunately, I don't have that train anymore, because I was a kid when I had it, it broke and didn't work anymore. The breakage turned out to be because of wire getting unsoldered, I didn't know that and dismantled the model. I still have parts of it laying around somewhere today, hopefully I'll be able to fix it up and use again. The track that came with it is rusty and unuasable anymore.
so the windows next to the door is actually seats for passengers and the irl speed is actually 320 km/h (it depends where) and i had 2 mehano on christmas and it didn't really run well (they are broken
(en) Excuse me from Japan. The TGV is a well-known train in Japan. Since I was a little girl, it was introduced as "French bullet train". It is very cool even if it is a model! Is the track made by KATO Uni-Track? I feel familiar with it because I rarely see it in movies outside of Japan. The ICE3 and other trains are also very cool!
Oh BTW, I would do a much larger distance to measure speed. If your camera is recording at 60fps, that means the best accuracy you have is 1/60 or 0.017 seconds yet you're comparing times that go claim to be 0.001 sec. level of precision, and as you saw with the loco without the cars, the difference in speed was big but thats only 2 frames difference in speed so depending on when your camera happened to record the frame at the start of the measurement and the end you easily could account for some of that discrepancy in speed.
Good unboxing and review with a carefully crafted selection of shots and commentary. The only thing, I didn't see the relevance of the pair of tweezers! Maybe just point with your finger? Thanks for uploading.
Don't know if anyone can help on this, but I have this brand and TGV and I'm really struggling to attached the two passenger coaches together? My two couplers are at the same height, with only one pin in the centre to attach them to, so once one coach is attached to the central coupler the other is repelled and doesn't snap over the other. Does anyone else find this?
I wish there were more bullet train type of models in HO scale sold in the US, I mean look at Kato and they have every Shinkansen train ever created in every paint scheme ever done but only in N-scale, now sure Kato is a Japanese company so I expect it, but I'm just tired of the never ending stream of diesel locos that seem to be the main thing every company from Walthers to Bachmann releases, and again I get it they model what's local and we don't have bullet trains over here. Here's hoping the CAHSR project gets enough track down to run trains so we do have something to model after.
I believe getting the license from JR for the Shinkansen trains is hard. Katsumi (KTM) has a selection of HO scale shinkansen models, but they are full brass, hand crafted and prohibitively expensive, you're looking at $8000-15000 for a full train set, so that eliminates 99% of worlds population ever owning them. I do believe KATO has some HO scale shinkansen sets, but they they aren't as popular as N scale. In general European high speed trains are lacking, it's pretty much just TGV and ICE, and some others here and there, the mold quality of most is also pretty lackluster. And I too am not really happy about the abundance of HO scale American Diesel locos, which, no offense, look all pretty similar to me, but they keep making new and new versions of them, and in general there is a big selection of older Diesels and Electic sets, but very scarce choice of some modern electrics, especially European ones. But in general, the hobby just became way to expensive for what you get, look at the KATO N scale Shinkansen sets, they are doing the bare minimum with them, they look good from afar, but the closer you get and inspect they are pretty cheap. TOMIX does a slightly better job. But yeah, for those of us on HO scale, not much choice, sadly.
This was a great video. I really like the paint scheme. Love your videos!
Noice train. Think it will be a great addition to your set up. Keep up the good videos!

The little windows on the front cars are for passengers ! There are seats inside. Sometimes it's use like a luggage compartment

Other than SMT Mainline, you are my favorite HO scale youtuber!

Long story short: Amtrak employees took a vacay to France🇫🇷, and liked the TGV, so they bought one and tested it on the NEC.
Tutatutaut
That was basically how the Acela Express was made
thumbs up for your great video
new subscriber from italy
all the best alberto 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😊😊😊😊😊😊
Could you make a Unboxing from the Austrian Traincompany named ÖBB
And this is a very good train
I have a very old TGV Atlantique from Jouef with the same paint scheme. The couplers are almost the same and I installed DCC on it.
Nice
Great Video! Could you someday do a video with the br 103? I would really like to see this train in one of your videos :)
A French train 🥖🚝
Oui c'est tiens train Français 🤣
Made by a Slovenian manufacturer.
😮

You should start to move these on a table and make a set for them
Great video man did u order the new scaletrains AC44
Enfin un train de mon pays 😊
There is a three car add-on set for this . Its hard to find . You will need two of these to get the train to it's true length .
so the windows next to the door is actually seats for passengers and the irl speed is actually 320 km/h (it depends where) and i had 2 mehano on christmas and it didn't really run well (they are broken
You should do a complete train and track layout review
You should get more cars and the catter cart and some cantanary

Excuse me from Japan.

Is the track made by KATO Uni-Track?
I feel familiar with it because I rarely see it in movies outside of Japan.
The ICE3 and other trains are also very cool!
I really like atlantique tgv
It feels weird to see modern Mehano locomotives considering they used to make stuff for USA a long time ago
I like how there is an american train next to a european train lol.
4158: Am I in France?
I think next you should get a scale trains ex santa fe bnsf warbonnet
There’s the bachmann version
Wish a brand like Kato or Rapido would release an updated set

Hi CraftyFoxe, I was wondering if you could recreate the valley rail EMD MP15AC locomotive.
They need to be longer so you have (don't need)to buy more
WOW ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey craftyfoxe, for your next h0 high speed train can you get the swedish x2000?
What is the brand and where can I find them?
think that my first trains in h0 were from mehano
Don't know if anyone can help on this, but I have this brand and TGV and I'm really struggling to attached the two passenger coaches together? My two couplers are at the same height, with only one pin in the centre to attach them to, so once one coach is attached to the central coupler the other is repelled and doesn't snap over the other.

Hi crafty

Lima has the best quality and detail. Mehano seems to lack on the details.
This is TOMIX. ??
Why all the downvotes on thsi video?
look like KTX 1
