Forest TGV workshop
Workshop activities
The Forest TGV workshop provides maintenance to the following trains:
- TGV Thalys, which operate between Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam and Cologne,
- TGV trains operating between Paris and Bruxelles,
- Eurostar trains which interconnect Brussels-London and Paris-London,
- TGV trains heading to Southern France.
This specialist workshop was built in 1992-1993. The workshop has 5 work hangers; the one reserved for maintenance to TGV high-speed trains extends over a length of 420 metres. Close to the workshop there is a covered, automated and ultra-modern installation for cleaning trains. A double under-floor computer-controlled lathe allows 2 wheelsets to be reprofiled at the same time on the same bogie. The workshop also has a work hanger for maintaining standard carriages.
