After a short visit in Spain, I'm on my way back through Paris once again.
In Spain I have a chance to spot this creatureSomewhere in Andalucia

Following day I'm in Paris
Today I'm not taking RER train but the TGV
Yes, I'm taking TGV but I'm not leaving the greater Paris area
TGV 12504 to Rennes
On the way to Rennes the train will stop in Massy, south of Paris - that is where I'm going
The TGV from CDG airport to Massy is just a little bit faster (49 min) than RER train (1h 17min). This is because the train is not traveling with TGV speed in Paris
Massy TGV stationMassy TGV station opened in 1991 and it is located near Massy Palaiseau RER station
There are 3 RER lines connected here: B, C and V
Class Z 5600 is operating the line
This line is part of the Great Paris ring
Each station is decorated with local sights
The line is very short
