Compartment a Refurbished Corail Lunéa 1st-class Couchettes-car (Ac9ux), seen in the consist of Corail Lunéa 3731 "Paris-Côte Vermeille" (Paris Austerlitz--->Portbou, with through-cars to Latour-de-Carol).

Under the "Lunéa" program, couchettes have been welded in "night" position, thence barring such refurbished cars from wholly-daytime services, as well as from longer overnight journeys, in excess of a typical "Night Spring"...

In 1st-class accommodation, this also includes the removal of former seat-backs and headrests, which had hitherto been fitted under the upper couchette...
