This triangular junction provides a link southwards from the ''LGV BPL'' to the 'classic' Le Mans - Angers [ - Nantes] line at Sablé-sur-Sarthe.
This curve is used by those trains between Nantes and Rennes scheduled to call at neither Redon nor Angers St. Laud.


*The east <=> south curve ('''Raccordement de Sablé-sur-Sarthe''') enables ''TGVs'' to run between Paris and Angers [ - Nantes]. This curve is used by all such trains which do '''NOT''' call at Le Mans. However, it appears that the majority of TGVs which call at Le Mans, or perhaps all such trains, use the ‘classic’ line between Le Mans and Angers. The only train which was identified as running via the Raccordement in 2018, as it overtook a preceding TER, no longer does so. '''The compilers would greatly appreciate reports of any TGVs taking this route between Le Mans and Angers.'''
(The town of Redon is in Bretagne, but the avoiding line is on the opposite bank of the River Vilaine in Pays de Loire).
*The west <=> south curve ('''Virgule de Sablé-sur-Sarthe: Laval (SEI 75 Auvers) - Sablé-sur-Sarthe''') enables TER trains to run direct between [Rennes - ] Laval and Angers [ - Nantes].
