    It's quite a good comparison because the Acela is designed to very quickly hop from town to town along the East coast whereas the TGV is more of a long distance quick cruiser, designed to get to max speed and stay there as long as possible as it rushes through the countryside

    LaZeR JET the reason why the Acela Express trains are bulkier than the TGV’s are because of the Federal Railroad Administration’s Tier II crashworthiness standards, making it 45% heavier than the TGV

  • @gapisblind

    my opinion on why it “takes off” is that it is a full electric so it doesnt basically have a engine (in locomotive) so it does straight to full speed

    • @Eurstre

      They are actually both electric trains.

    • @CTSLRailfan
      @CTSLRailfan 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      the real reason is DTG doesn’t care about realism. the physics, sounds, and model of the acela in train simulator are all inaccurate. they do not take off that fast. the tgv physics and sounds are also inaccurate and the model might be inaccurate in some places but i’m not sure. also, there is two acela sets coupled together doubling the power.

      Carlos Bermudez A train set here means a uniform train consisting of a fixed number of coaches. These coaches are semi permanently attached to each other and each coach plays a role in running the train. The Acela too, is a EMU train set.

      Technically, TGV runs on 1500V DC on classical french lines electrified before the 80's, also the 3000V DC from belgian & italian lines, and the "germanic" 15kV 16,67Hz alternative current, depending from the specs you want.

    The reason the acela express is so bulky compared to the tgv train is because the acela express was beefed up to match the US federal railroad administration standards it was so bulky and heavy that the French workers that manufactured the acela express nicknamed the trains le cochon (the pig)

    @therealjuralumin3416 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This is a weird test, the TGV is so much faster than the Acela, in fact the TGV is actually the fastest conventional high speed train in the world! A modified TGV Duplex went 574kph, while the regular TGV service operates at 320kph (200mph). By comparison the Acela can only go 150mph, and is severely limited due the short distance of high speed track on the north east corridor, so it rarely gets to go the full 150mph, only averaging around 80mph on a full trip. Not bagging on the Acela, it's an awesome train, but it's pretty slow by modern high speed rail standards.

    • @Victor-ze3sd
      @Victor-ze3sd 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think the TGV tracks in France are mostly only rated up to 360km/h (You'll probably never see one go over 325 as effeciency decreases a lot).

  • @Raul_MP
    @Raul_MP 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I'd vote for the TGV, it's a lot faster and better than the Acela Express. Not only that, in real life. The TGV Duplex was once modified as the TGV V150. Which reached 574km/h

    you wonder why the Acela express is so slow and why the TGV is so fast?
    well it's simple, the Acela express has classic cars that can be coupled to all kinds of different trains
    but the tgv has cars which have a single bogie which makes them safer and more aerodinamic
    and the tgv has two locomotives, one which pulls the train and one which pushes the train at the same time

  • @tf51d
    @tf51d 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    A few things, one the TGV is not a diesel electric it's an electric just like the Acela. It's inherently faster then the Acela since the tracks it runs on was designed to handle those speeds, where the Acela runs on much older trackage with more curves that are not capable of speeds that high, though some track and power in Mass, into RI was upgraded to handle speeds of 150MPH. While the TGV rails are capable of speeds of 199MPH. ( and in test trials much faster in some sections) The basic design of the Acela was taken directly from the TGV and is made by the same company, Alstom, though there are some differences, One noticeable difference is a single TGV set runs on a single pantograph raised while the Acela runs with both up. This was an Amtrak requirement, though Alstom says is not necessary. The replacement for the Acela, is planned to be the Alstom Avelia Liberty which is said to initially increase top speed to 160MPH, with higher speeds possible up to 220MPH is track infrastructure upgrades allow, In the current political climate in the US, I think the chances of this is slim to none, and most likely the latter.

      tf51d I'm gonna miss the acela when the aveila comes around. and hopefully they will upgrade the tracks on Amtrak for them but the possibility is slim since the NE corridor is very busy and other trains such as MARC NJ transit and Metro north share. Also because there are the other trains on Amtrak so eh. small possibility.

    Acela's Pantograph is tall because on a few sections it shares the line with freight trains.
    Also, the Acela's never operates in MU. They can, but they never have.

    Also AI trains pick up speed much faster than the player's trains. In real life the TGV has a much faster acceleration than the Acela. Also, my note to the Americans who are telling off that ' their ' Acela is better, is that the Acela itself has been designed by Alstom (France) for the Amtrak (along with Bombardier's Canadian division)!
