| TGV Sud Est |

The TGV Sud-Est (or TGV PSE) is the first model of commercial TGV (HST or High Speed Train in english). It was produced from 1978 up to 1986. At launch, the maximum speed was 260 km/h, but it was then upgraded to 300 km/h.
This recreation is smaller than the real one: only one engine and 2 cars. (i could make it full (i actually did make a full version) but unless you like playing at 5fps, i wouldnt recommend playing with it).

This train has a full interior (might be considered ugly for todays standarts, but I tried to recreate the feel of the first interior. .The train has sealed gangway (the passageway between two cars), meaning more realism and less falling off the train when going to another car). It also is articulated, meaning less chances of derailing ( and less lag, depending on situations).


All commands :
1 : Horn
2 : Brakes
3 : Direction
4 : Lights
5 : Automatic driving system (Kynatic)
6 : Engine startup switch/ Pantograph
7 : Close all doors
8 : Open left doors
9 : Open right doors
Forward key : Increase motor power
Backward key : Decrease motor power

The automatic driving system uses a 3 channel command system. Sensors on the bottom-front of the train read the color signal coming from the tracks.

Engine power :
yellow channel
4 sub-channels
(1 : None(darkest), 2 : Small(dark), 3 : Medium(normal), 4 High speed(light))

Braking:
orange channel
2 sub-channels
(On (light), Off(dark))

Doors :
green channel
3 sub-channels
(Close all doors (Dark), Open right doors(normal), Open left doors(light))
To activate the system, press 5, or turn the orage button on the control pannel, a little light indicator should turn on, the engine power should instantly reset, and the door close button should turn red as well.

To use it, place large colored surfaces on the tracks. Make it so they are large enough to be picked up at high speeds. Keep in mind the side on which the sensors are, look under the front of the train to get a clear view of them.

Restarting the train resets the system.

7u gauge

The max speed is 400 Bps (1 Bps = 0.9 Km/h)

You can drive it at any speed you want, but i recommend not going over 170 Bps in straight line and 130 Bps in curves.
