Tracks (West end) in Genève-Cornavin, looking towards the Airport, France and La Praille.
This pic was made from Platform 3, between tracks 5 and 6. Tracks 7-8 (Platform 4) stand further right, and accommodate non-RER traffic to/from France.
Whereas Tracks 1-4 (further left) are single-voltage (15kV 16.7Hz AC), all other tracks (5-8) are convertible (15kV 16.7Hz AC or 1.5kV DC).
Further behind, Traffic to/from France (RER and non-RER) then runs on the most right-hand track (1.5kV DC only). Traffic to/from the Airport uses the 2 middle tracks (15kV 16.7Hz AC only), whereas that to La Praille/Lancy-Rouge runs on the left-hand track (15kV 16.7Hz AC only).
