In April 2013, the National French Railways (SNCF) launched a new TGV range of high-speed trains called "OUIGO" [wiˈɡo]. The inexpensive TGV connections proved so successful that it was decided to apply the same concept to traditional train connections. The first "OUIGO Classic" relations were launched onto the rails in spring 2022.
Nine locomotives from the series BB 22200 hauled the trains and received the conspicuous foil applications. 2nd class Corail coaches were used as rolling stock. During the course of the redesign, these were each provided with a storage space big enough for two bicycles at one end.
