313s are only cleared for passenger use as far north as Three Bridges. Only cleared ECS north of Three Bridges as they've never been 'crush loaded' tested (same on the Arun Valley line). It does limit the routing somewhat, compared to say the 455 tour.
Wondering if anyone can help me avoid cart haulage from Paris to Nevers. Traveling there in a few weeks. Couple of questions
A) Are the intercites services still partially or entirely loco hauled on the Paris-Clermont-Ferrand route?
B) Is there a way of finding out which services are still...
If they replace anything my guess will the 377/5s. They will come back to southern boot out the 313s and extend shoulder peak services up to 12 car formations.
