A TGV from Dunkerque to Paris-Nord struck a heavy truck Tuesday morning at a level crossing in Bully-les-Mines, Pas-de-Calais, killing the train driver, Claudio D., 56. Fifteen passengers were injured, and the truck driver was taken into custody. SNCF CEO Jean Castex said the level crossing was functioning normally.
On Monday 25 May 2026, the TGV Sud-Est line was heavily disrupted near Lyon by a power supply failure at Montanay. Delays of 2.5 to 4 hours affected several trains, and passengers from two Paris-Nice TGVs were evacuated onto the tracks due to the heat.
