Evening peak in the Bar/1st-class car (A3rtu) of Rapide (à supplément) 77 "Capitole du Soir" (Paris Austerlitz--->Toulouse Matabiau). Bar accommodation was very popular on board of that train, with people looking to relax after a busy day in Paris and to enjoy their 6-hr journey.
LGV Atlantique had just opened in full (30th September 1990), but the final countdown for this flagship service had hardly begun, as only 1 daily TGV service would run on Paris-Toulouse via Bordeaux at that time...
November 1990.
