In 2007 my daughter was in charge of organising the Winter Fair in the Expo Hal Rijswijk, Netherlands. Being the first Winter Fair, there was some free space left. A direct link with her father made it possible to fill the gap and be able to introduce this 1977 ex RATP Saviem SC10 in order to promote the activities of the local "Haags Bus Museum". It was quite a success.
In 2007 organiseerde mijn dochter de Winter Fair in de Expo Hal, Rijswijk. Dat soort dingen behoorden in die tijd tot haar dagelijkse werkzaamheden. De Winter Fair was een nieuwe activiteit en bij zoiets kan het voorkomen dat er plaats over is. Een directe link met haar vader.... maakte het mogelijk het gat te vullen met de uit 1977 afkomstige ex Parijse Saviem SC10 stadsbus 7896 (met open achterbalkon). Met deze bus was het mogelijk de activiteiten te promoten van het Haags Bus Museum. En zo sneed het mes aan twee kanten.
Bij het naar binnen rijden heeft een aantal tapijttegels het moeten ontgelden. Dat "verlies" heeft de beursorganisatie graag op zich willen nemen.
De 612 is van oorsprong de RATP 7896 en is in 1977 in dienst gekomen bij het vervoebedrijf van Parijs. In 1993 werd de bus door de RATP geruild tegen PCC-car 1311 van de HTM.
In Den Haag zou de bus beschikbaar komen voor besloten vervoer, uitgevoerd door HTM-Specials. Sinds 2004 maakt de bus deel uit van het wagenpark van het Haags Bus Museum.

The Train Bleu Restaurant.
Paris was about to receive a major new Universal Exhibition in 1900. After the Saint-Lazare train station in 1889, it was the turn of the Gare de Lyon to take on the appearance of a palace, and in particular to magnify the new PLM Company (Paris Lyon Marseille) terminal, which operated lines of the Southeast network at the end of the 19th century. The project was entrusted to the architect Marius Toudoire, who built the 64 meters belfry (the Clock-Tower) and the monumental façade of the station.
The Management of the railway company wanted to build a prestigious buffet, symbol of travel, of technical innovation, of comfort and luxury. The project was given to the same architect, who built the buffet in the building at the centre of the station.
The station’s buffet was unveiled in 1901 by the President of the Republic Emile Loubet.
In 1963, Albert Chazal renamed the buffet as « Le Train Bleu » (the Blue Train), honouring the legendary « Paris-Vintimille », legendary train with as its destination the Côte d’Azur.
Gildings, carvings, mouldings, chandeliers and frescoes cover all the walls of the restaurant, giving it the appearance of a museum of the 1900s. Twenty seven French artists, some awarded with the Prix de Rome, have worked on this unparalleled decor.
The 41 paintings mounted on canvas were painted by the most prominent artists of the time: François Flameng, Henri Gervex, Gaston Casimir Saint-Pierre, René Billotte, etc. They illustrate views of the main cities and sceneries viewed from the PLM Company trains during the 20th century: Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Orange, Villefranche, Monaco, Nice, Saint-Honorat, the Mont-Blanc massif, etc.

Paris-Gare de Lyon (or Gare de Lyon) is one of the six large mainline railway station termini in Paris. 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 located in the XIIe arrondissement, on the north bank of the river Seine, in the east of Paris. The station is served by high-speed TGV trains to south and eastern France, Switzerland, Italy and Spain. The station also hosts regional trains and the RER and also by the Gare de Lyon metro station. Source: www.wikiwand.com

The 12th arrondissement of Paris (also known as "arrondissement de Reuilly") is one of the 20 arrondissements (administrative districts) of the capital city of France.
Situated on the right bank of the River Seine, the district has been significantly reorganized in recent decades, especially in the areas of Cour Saint-Émilion and Bercy, which now contain the French Ministry of Finances and the Bercy arena.
The 12th arrondissement contains the Opéra de la Bastille, the second largest opera house in Paris. It was inaugurated in 1989, on the 200th anniversary of the storming of the Bastille. The Bois de Vincennes is also located in this arrondissement. Source: www.wikiwand.com

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. The transition between two different liveries is seen here.
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.

Édifiée en 1899 par Marius Toudoire, la gare de Lyon située place Louis Armand remplace un embarcadère, édifié en 1847 et agrandi à maintes reprises en raison de l'accroissement du trafic.
Celle de 1847 est due à l’architecte Cendrier et mise en service le 12 août 1849, son premier nom a été "Embarcadère de chemin de fer de Paris à Montereau".
La gare de Lyon est située en face de la gare d'Austerlitz de l'autre côté de la Seine reliées entre entre elles par le pont d'Austerlitz, le pont Charles de Gaulle et la passerelle d'Austerlitz réservé au passe du métro.
Elle a été inaugurée en 1900, à l'occasion de 'Exposition Universelle de 1900.
Elle, elle possède un beffroi de 64 m de haut comportant 4 cadrans de 6m de diamètre construite dans le style académique de 1900.
Son hall de 220 mètres de long sur 42 mètres de large abritait à cette époque 2 voies ; une pour l’arrivée et une pour le départ qui ont été édifiées sur un remblai de 7 m de haut pour éviter les crues de la Seine.
La gare assure la desserte d'un grand quart Sud Est de la France. C'est la troisième gare de Paris par son trafic soit environ 83 millions de voyageurs par an.
Cinq nouvelles voies sont construites en 1981 pour le TGV
