TER-GV, a portmanteau of TER (French Regional Train) and TGV (high-speed train), are regional TGV linking relatively nearby cities (termini being 100–200 km apart) using the LGV Nord dedicated high-speed line (Paris-Lille-Calais). So far, those trains only operate in the Hauts-de-France region.

In 2001, the first three lines were opened:

A fourth line, Lille-Europe–Arras, was added in 2007. The success of this line led to subsequent capacity increases.
