Renfe has made more than 400km/h with a non modified ICE3.This TGV has more than 25kv of tension, bigger whells, more motors and has been fully modified to reach this speed...

no problem with that...engineer of the V150 operation where suprised but this train is incredible! maglev type of train need to show that this is a safe train...(transrapid accident..)

Guys you know what.....TGVs looks cool at that speed but travelling at that speed with a TGV is less safer than maglev trains because the tyres of TGV trains can wear out at that speed but maglev trains dont touch the rails ...nothing wears out.

AGV engine are very powerfull with 25k in the cable...more than the ICE3...perf will be better than a poor 408kmph..
benoit91220 (October 2, 2008 at 12:21 pm)
claimed!lol.. don't care or be inform and admit that the v150 could run at 600kmph! no proof=no value

@benoit: 408 km/h but Siemens claimed that they didn't go full speed. Minimum 420km/h is possible. If you want I will post the Link, but you wouldn't understand. What happens with you AGV when you lower voltage on normal standard? There are only 25k on the cable. And additional engines waste a lot of money, for serial issues absolutely inproper. Beside of many other modification which were made. We will see if Alstom is able to catch up with Siemens in 2015, also in terms of steady states...
