Difference between Locomotive and TGV

Locomotive vs. TGV

A locomotive or engine is a rail transport vehicle that provides the motive power for a train. The TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse, "high-speed train") is France's intercity high-speed rail service, operated by the SNCF, the state-owned national rail operator.

Similarities between Locomotive and TGV

Locomotive and TGV have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bogie, British Rail, Gas turbine, Gas turbine locomotive, Germany, Italy, Kinetic energy, Overhead line, Pantograph (transport), Power car, Power-to-weight ratio, Shinkansen, Spain, Third rail.

Bogie

A bogie (in some senses called a truck in North American English) is a chassis or framework carrying wheelsets, attached to a vehicle, thus serving as a modular subassembly of wheels and axles.
