This is pretty cool: video of a TGV going 357.2 mph (a new record).
I don't know much French, and what I do know I have trouble understanding spoken; but in the middle it sounds like they're saying something like "This train goes faster than the planes of the Americans". But maybe that's just me hallucinating.
Either way, quite something to see. I wouldn't mind seeing them put one of these alongside the I-5 corridor...
