Like if we were back in the 1980's and 1990's when the TGV colors were orange like here.
Set TGV 01, named ‘Patrick’, retires after 41 years of service. For this occasion, both power cars got back their original orange livery. Intermediate cars got back SNCF older blue-silver paint scheme, so TGV 01 now sports all three liveries it has had during its active career. Train spotters gathered at track J where the 01 stood for about ten minutes to change direction and re-depart.
TGV 01 "Patrick"
An explosion of colors to say farewell to the first TGV Sud-Est high-speed train. Set TGV 01, named ‘Patrick’, retires after 41 years of service. For this occasion, both power cars got back their original orange livery. Intermediate cars got back SNCF older blue-silver paint scheme, so TGV 01 now sports all three liveries it has had during its active career.
The SNCF TGV Sud-Est or TGV-PSE was a French high speed TGV train built by Alstom and operated by SNCF, the French national railway company. It is a semi-permanently coupled electric multiple unit and was built for operation between Paris and the south-east of France.
The TGV Sud-Est fleet was built between 1978 and 1988 and operated the first TGV service from Paris to Lyon in 1981.
Originally the sets were built to run at 270 km/h (168 mph) but most were upgraded to 300 km/h (186 mph) during their mid-life refurbishment in preparation for the opening of the LGV Méditerranée. The few sets which still have a maximum speed of 270 km/h (168 mph) operate on routes which have a comparatively short distance on the lignes à grande vitesse, such as those to Switzerland via Dijon. SNCF did not consider it financially worthwhile to upgrade their speed for a marginal reduction in journey time.
In December 2019, all TGV Sud-Est sets were retired from service. In early 2020, a farewell service which included TGV01 (Nicknamed Patrick), the very first TGV train ever build. This train included all 3 liveries that were worn during it's service.

This is the Big Ben of Paris : the "gare de Lyon" belfry.
This 67-meters high belfry is composed of 4 clocks placed on each face and was designed by Paul Garnier between 1895 and 1902.

The headquarters of the RATP Group (Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens), Maison de la RATP, in the Rue de Bercy next to Gare de Lyon in the 12ème arrondissement.
RATP Group
The RATP Group (French: Groupe RATP), also known as the Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens (English: Autonomous Operator of Parisian Transports) is a state-owned public transport operator headquartered in Paris, France. Formed in 1948, the group has its origins as the public transport operator for the city of Paris. Its logo represents, in a stylized version, the Seine's meandering through the area around Paris as the face of a person looking up.
Today RATP is still responsible for most of the public transport in Paris and its surrounding Île-de-France region, including the Paris Métro, tram and bus services and part of the Réseau Express Régional (RER) network. In the Île-de-France region, RATP carries about 3 billion passengers per year.
Whilst the RATP's Paris operations are still a major part of the business, its operations have now extended to include businesses around the globe. These include involvement in the operation of bus, tram, rapid transit and inter-city rail services, located in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas.
In Paris the RATP operates 16 métro lines with a total length of 219.9 km (of which 169 km within the city limits of Paris) with 302 stations (November 2016).

Aujourd'hui, en 2013, ces rames ont pour la plupart plus de 30 ans ; elles reçoivent une nouvelle livrée Carmillon et un nouvel aménagement intérieur pour certaines d'entre-elles.
En revanche, les rames 110 à 118, réservées aux TGV Lyria, ont toutes été radiées au 08 février 2013.
An image of the Gare de Lyon, Paris, this is a panoramic view of the station, shot from the entrance to Le Train Blu restaurant entrance.
The Gare de Lyon (Lyon Station), officially Paris-Gare-de-Lyon, is one of the six large mainline railway station termini in Paris, France. It handles about 90,000,000 passengers every year, making it the third busiest station of France and one of the busiest of Europe. It is the northern terminus of the Paris–Marseille railway. It is named after the city of Lyon, a stop for many long-distance trains departing here, most en route to the south of France.
The station is served by high-speed TGV trains to south and eastern France, Switzerland, Germany, Italy and Spain. The station also hosts regional trains and the RER and also the Gare de Lyon metro station. Main line trains depart from 32 platforms in two distinct halls: Hall 1, which is the older train shed, contains tracks labelled with letters from A to N (this is where the above shot was taken), while the modern addition of Hall 2 contains tracks which are numbered from 5 to 23. There are a further 4 platforms for the RER underneath the main lines.
The next few uploads on here will be (broadly) train related, because, well.....I quite like trains!

SNCF class CC6500 no. CC6557 seen pulling into Paris Gare de Lyon on 2 August 1985. 78 examples were built and was one of the earliest of the Nez cassés as designed by Paul Arzens . This class were employed on express trains out of Paris Lyon and Austerlitz for many years, in latter days were relegated more to freight work.

Reason: Andy and I rushed to Paris on this day to say goodbye to the very first TGV, number 01, nicknamed « Patrick ». For this occasion, both power cars got back their original orange livery. Intermediate cars got back SNCF older blue-silver paint scheme, so TGV 01 now sports all three liveries it has had during its active career.
