Initially, I'm impressed with this. They've added tilting so that the
speed can be increased without building dedicated high-speed track corridors

handle the higher side loading as was done in France for the non-LGV trackage.
From 1968 - the UAC TurboTrain - "...one of the first tilting trains to
enter service":

None too successful, as you'll read.
