[ERT 270, fiche Paris-Rouen-Le Havre] (ERA-R 70B5; S+W ''14A1) FR21/151
This recently-completed curve allows trains to run directly between the Gisors and Rouen lines without having to reverse at Serqueux.  Trains between Paris and Rouen may be diverted this way when there is engineering work on the main line.  This is indicated by an extended journey time and happened on several weekends in autumn 2021.
