Trains in Normandy

[981smithy]

Hi, We are staying at Manneville in Normandy and I am planning to go to a place called Motteville just East of Yvetot, I am asking if anybody as any Info on what passes through the station TGV? Freight from Le Harve?
Hope someone can help. Thanks

For the TGV:
TGV 5316 Le Havre - Lyon (7h55 - 12h31)
TGV 5376 Lyon - Le havre (17h26 - 22h00)

TGV 5346 Le Havre - Strasbourg (7h43 - 13h33)
TGV 5348 Strasbourg - Le Havre (16h48 - 22h40)

There also a lot of Intercity train between Le Havre and Paris (each hours) hauled by BB 15000 locomotive.
Some TER:

Motteville - Elbeuf Saint Aubin (DMUs or hauled with a diesel BB 67400 locomotive) every 20 or 30 minutes

Le Havre - Rouen (DEMU) early in the morning for Le havre or passing through Motteville
7h58 (for Rouen)
9h03 (for Rouen)
13h13 (for Le Havre)
19h32 (for Le Havre)

And also a lot of freight (some of them hauled with class 66).

I read that the Le Havre - Strasbourg call at Charles De Gualle. Do they change ends there? It looks a pretty slow avoiding line from Massy

is there not a connection from the North-South TGV line through De Gaulle onto the TGV Est(Paris-Strasbourg) which passes just a bit to the North of CDG? I've never known a TGV to reverse save maybe out of crowded station but only to sidings.

Each TGV which goes from the north to the east or from the north to the south-east passes through CDG.

And each TGV which goes from the south-east to the west or from the south-west to the east passes through Massy TGV.

I've got a feeling the TGVs which come off the high-speed line into Marseille then reverse out on to the classic lines up to Nice.

EDIT: Obviously I misread the original post. I didn't realise you were talking about Normandy and CDG, and instead started wittering on about Marseille! Apologies.
