SNCF intends to double the number of passengers on its low-cost TGV Ouigo. TGV-Intercités - a management of SNCF Voyageurs - intends to enlarge the fleet dedicated to this train.
The fleet must increase from 28 to 50 trainsets thanks to the renovation "mid-life", that is to say after fifteen to twenty years of service, of conventional TGV. Ouigo CEO Jérôme Laffon is already pleased with the "full cardboard" encountered by the last lines opened by the blue and pink train.
