Regarding the real-world model:

109 examples of the TGV PSE were delivered to the SNCF from 1980 on the occasion of the commissioning of the first French high-speed line between Paris and Lyon (LGV Sud-Est).

The original orange livery was designed by Jacques Cooper. It remained in use until the TGV liveries were standardized in the late 1990s with the introduction of the TGV Atlantique. The trains were then repainted in the Atlantique grey/blue livery.

A tri-current version of the TGV PSE made it possible to serve Switzerland.

Train set number 16 broke a speed record by reaching 380 km/h on February 26, 1981.

The first trains were operated from the opening of the line in 1980 until the first withdrawal in 2012. Some trains that have undergone recent renovation are still in service and should be permanently withdrawn in 2023.
