4K TGV Cab Ride de Paris-Nord à Valenciennes en TGV Sud-Est
Aujourd'hui pour cette nouvelle vidéo, j'ai décidé de vous faire voyager à bord d'un monument du rail, une icône Française qui à fait la fierté de la SNCF et d’Alstom. Il s'agit bien sur du TGV Sud Est !
Ces rames construites à partir de 1978 sont tout simplement les deuxièmes rames à grande vitesse de l'histoire après les rames Japonaise Shinkansen série 0 construites en 1964.
Elles qui étaient initialement prévu pour une durée de vie de 30ans ont largement dépassé les espérances et continuent d'assurer à l'heure actuelle un service irréprochable après plus de 40ans d’existence !
Cela fait bien longtemps qu'elles ont perdu leurs livrée orange si caractéristique et quelques mois quelles ont disparu de leurs lignes de prédilection dans le sud est de la France.
Après 3 lourdes rénovations et au vue du travail accompli dessus, il est difficile de croire qu'il s’agisse des rames qui ont fait l'ouverture du TGV au début des années 80.
Alors même si les irréductibles diront que le TGV à mis un terme à une grande variété de train prestigieux, je pense qu'il est naturel de rendre hommage à ce train qui aura écrit une belle partie de l'histoire ferroviaire française.
Au passage, il s'agit de ma première vidéo avec ma nouvelle caméra, je vous conseil même si vous n'avez pas d’écran 4k de sélectionner 1440Pou 2160P sur YouTube cela améliore grandement la qualité de visionnage.
Comme d'habitude, laissez un commentaire et abonnez vous si le travail accompli vous a plus.
Aussi pas la peine de me demander d'ajouter les données tachymétrique, mon matériel n'est pas compatible avec cette technologie alors j'essaye de compenser ça en vous mettant les vitesses limites réelles sur l'intégralité du parcours.
Today's video, is about making you travel aboard a railway monument, a French icon that is the pride of the SNCF and Alstom.
It is good on the TGV South East!
These were built from 1978 are simply the second high-speed trains in history after the Japanese Shinkansen 0 series trainsets built in 1964.
They were originally planned for a 30-year life expectancy and have largely exceeded expectations and therefore continue to ensure at the moment an irreproachable service after more than 40 years of existence!
It's been a long time since they lost their orange livery so characteristic and a few months they have disappeared from their favorite lines in the South East of France.
After 3 major renovations and in view of the work done on it, it is difficult to believe that these are the trains that opened the TGV in the early 80s. So even if the irreducible say that the TGV to put a term to a great variety of prestigious train,
I think it is natural to pay tribute to this train which will have written a beautiful part of the French railway history. Incidentally, this is my first video with my new camera,
I am advising that you even if you do not have a 4k screen to select 1440Pou 2160P on YouTube it greatly improves the quality of viewing.
As usual, please feel free to drop a comment and subscribe if the work done has you more.
Also please do not bother asking me to add tachometer data since my hardware is not compatible with this technology so I am trying to compensate for this by putting you the actual speed limits on the entire course.
Enjoy !!!

Eglise Marmoutier SAINT MARTIN DE TOURS france
de l autre côté de la Loire
The abbey was founded by Saint Martin of Tours (316-397), in 372, after he had been made Bishop of Tours in 371. Martin's biographer, Sulpicius Severus (c. 363–c. 425), affirms that Martin withdrew from the press of attention in the city to live in Marmoutier (Majus Monasterium), the monastery he founded several miles from Tours on the opposite shore of the Loire River.
Sulpicius described the severe restrictions of the life of Martin among the cave-dwelling cenobites who gathered around him, a rare view of a monastic community that preceded the Benedictine rule:
Many also of the brethren had, in the same manner, fashioned retreats for themselves, but most of them had formed these out of the rock of the overhanging mountain, hollowed into caves. There were altogether eighty disciples, who were being disciplined after the example of the saintly master. No one there had anything which was called his own; all things were possessed in common. It was not allowed either to buy or to sell anything, as is the custom among most monks. No art was practiced there, except that of transcribers, and even this was assigned to the brethren of younger years, while the elders spent their time in prayer. Rarely did any one of them go beyond the cell, unless when they assembled at the place of prayer. They all took their food together, after the hour of fasting was past. No one used wine, except when illness compelled them to do so. Most of them were clothed in garments of camels' hair. Any dress approaching to softness was there deemed criminal, and this must be thought the more remarkable, because many among them were such as are deemed of noble rank. (Sulpicius, Vita, X)
In 853 the abbey was pillaged and destroyed by Normans, who killed over 100 monks. During the years shortly after 1000 AD, the abbey grew considerably, becoming one of the richest in Europe. In the wake of the Norman Conquest the abbey acquired patronage of churches in England. In 1096 Pope Urban II consecrated its new chapel, and preached the First Crusade. Pope Calixtus II preached crusade again in 1119, convincing Count Foulques V d'Anjou to take part and leading to his subsequent role as King of Jerusalem. In 1162 Pope Alexander III, who came to reside in Tours after being chased from Rome by Frederick Barbarossa, consecrated the monastery's new Chapel Saint Benoit.
The abbey eventually grew too small for its inhabitants, and was completely rebuilt at the start of the thirteenth century under the leadership of Abbot Hugues des Roches. In the following century its abbot Gérard du Puy became cardinal-nephew to the last of the Avignon popes, Gregory XI. In 1562 the abbey was again pillaged, this time by Huguenot Protestants at the start of the Wars of Religion. Again however it recovered. English diarist John Evelyn visited the abbey, and recorded this entry for June 6, 1644:
“ I went by water to visit that goodly and venerable Abbey of Marmoutiers, being one of the greatest in the kingdom: to it is a very ample church of stone, with a very high pyramid. Amongst other relics the Monks showed us is the Holy Ampoulle, the same with that which sacres their Kings at Rheims, this being the one that anointed Henry IV. Ascending many steps, we went into the Abbot's Palace, where we were showed a vast tun (as big as that at Heidelberg), which they report St. Martin (as I remember) filled from one cluster of grapes growing there. ”
The abbey was disestablished in 1799 during the French Revolution, and within a few decades the bulk of its buildings had been demolished.
Henry James visited the abbey in 1883, being guided through the various buildings by a chatty nun - as described in his book A Little Tour in France.
Today its grounds contain a private school, and of its former structures only a few ruins remain.
