Avelia Euroduplex, more commonly known as just Euroduplex or TGV 2N2 in France, is a high-speed double-decker train manufactured by Alstom.[3][4] It is primarily operated by the French national railway company SNCF, and also in operation with the Moroccan national railway company ONCF.[4] It is the 3rd generation of the TGV Duplex.

The Euroduplex trains are interoperable, containing equipment allowing them to travel between several European continental countries with various types of electrification and signalling systems. A Moroccan variation is the first high-speed train to operate in Africa.
