    New: Accès Plus is changing, but not disappearing!

    To coincide with the launch of Assist'enGare, the "Accès Plus" brand has been repositioned to encompass all the products and services offered by TGV-INTERCITÉS for people with reduced mobility and disabilities.

    Our "Accès Plus" customer relations service will be maintained on 3635#45 (price of a local call) as a dedicated expert line. It will no longer be able to process your request for station assistance, but will be able to help you book your train tickets.
