Hello all ;

Here are 2 videos I found out in the web concerting Talgo. For thoe of you you don't know, it's u US routes are deeper, since the first 4 Talgo II's were built by Acf (there's a preserved set at MAdrid's railroad museum)

First feature 'vignette'; an 'official' video presenting the train (the ride over jointed rail was bumpy back then, still bumpy today). By the way, any hint about the cat on eletrified territory ? That cat is way too different from PRR's NEc type

'vignette' of the construction and tests, with some colour images. wonder where were these carried away (I suspect around wilmington.Del)

There's a second part of the previous vignette that covers the first moments in Spain
