===Sablé-sur-Sarthe Triangle===
[ERT 280 & 287, fiche Ligne 28] (ERA-E 27B2; ERA-R 69C2; S+W ''45C4'') FR20/680
This triangular junction provides a link southwards from the ''LGV BPL'' to the 'classic' Le Mans - Angers [ - Nantes] line at Sablé-sur-Sarthe.
*The east to south curve ('''Raccordement de Sablé-sur-Sarthe''') enables ''TGVs'' to run between Paris and Angers. 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 west to south curve ('''Virgule de Sablé-sur-Sarthe: Laval (SEI 75 Auvers) - Sablé-sur-Sarthe''') enables TER trains to run between Rennes and Nantes via Laval and Angers.
