===SNCF operations=== Since the 1990s, SNCF has been selling railway carriages to regional governments, with the creation of the Train Express Régional brand. SNCF also maintains a broad scope of [[international business]] that includes work on freight lines, inter-city lines and commuter lines. SNCF experts provide logistics, design, construction, operations and maintenance services. SNCF operates the international ticketing agency [[SNCF Connect]], formerly oui.sncf/Voyages-sncf.com and [[Rail Europe, Inc.|Rail Europe]], previously [[Raileurope.co.uk|Loco 2]]. SNCF has employees in 120 countries offering extensive overseas and cross border consulting. Those projects include *[[Israel]]: Assistance and Training. SNCF International provides assistance to [[Israel Railways]] in every area of rail operations including projects to upgrade the network's general safety regulations. Other assistance and training programmes involve Infrastructure and the Traction Division. *[[Taiwan]]: Operations Training. SNCF supervised the prime contractor responsible for construction of the Taiwan Railways Administration's main high-speed rail line. It also trained rail traffic controllers, drivers, and crew members. On behalf of the Government of Taiwan, SNCF managed the high-speed railway Command Control Centre. *[[United Kingdom]]: Maintenance. In 2007–2008, SNCF-International consultants audited the maintenance practices applied to the track, signalling and overhead electric power line on British high-speed rail lines connecting London to the [[Channel Tunnel]]. In addition, it conducted an audit of the maintainer's performance from the service quality and cost control standpoint, made recommendations for improvements, and proposed a three-year Business Plan. *[[South Korea]]: HSR Electrification Design. SNCF advised Korean Railroads on the electrification of tracks between Daegu and Busan and on linking existing conventional tracks to the new high-speed line. SNCF also assisted in selecting and inspecting high-speed [[rolling stock]] and trained 400 senior manager, engineers, and executives in a broad range of skills, including signalling, catenaries, track, rolling stock maintenance, HSR operation, safety management, marketing, and passenger information systems. Until the end of 2009, SNCF assisted Korea in maintaining its high-speed. *[[Spain]]: Signalling System. SNCF partnered with ADIF (Spanish railway infrastructure provider) in the study, supply, installation, and maintenance of the standard EU railway signaling system along the Madrid-Lleida high-speed line. On behalf of the Spanish Government, SNCF designed and led maintenance operations on this line over a two-year period. *[[France]]: Lead Infrastructure and Rolling Stock Maintainer – The SNCF maintains {{convert|32,000|km|mi|abbr=on}} of track, 26,500 main sets of points and crossings, 2,300 signal boxes, 80,000 track circuits, over 1 million relays, etc. It also maintains 3,900 locomotives and 500 high-speed trains. Each of SNCF's TGV trains travels more than {{convert|39,000|km|mi|abbr=on}} a month – enough to circle the globe. Each year SNCF's Human Resources Department provides over 1.2 million hours of training to its over 25,000 employees. *[[Morocco]]: Design, construction and operations for the [[Al Boraq]] bullet train service between [[Tangier]] and [[Casablanca]] {{clear left}}
