    Hi Guys,
    Found this regarding the TVM Display. I'm sure someone will come back and state if it's not for the 395.
    The Channel Tunnel Rail Link (CTRL) is signalled with a cab signalling system called TVM430. This is the same system as used in the Channel Tunnel itself, as well as on the high-speed lines in France. The letters "TVM" stand for 'Transmission Voie-Machine', which means 'Track to Train Transmission'. The number "430" refers to the theoretical maximum speed at which the system will operate, which is 430 km/h (267 mph). The maximum permissible speed on the CTRL is 300 km/h (186 mph).

    An indication displayed inside the cab advises the driver at what speed, in kilometres per hour, the train may run. An audible tone accompanies any change of display.

    A flashing indication advises the driver that the next indication displayed may be more restrictive than the current one. The change of indication will usually occur when the train passes the next block marker.
