Train à grande vitesse. The French high speed train that runs on LGV, ligne à grande vitesse.

This seems to be the 1990 record run (515 kph) and it's definitely the cooler video, but the one from 2007 is even crazier (574 kph, almost as fast as the maglev record). Of course, they did cheat a bit by modifying the wheels, but still. Personally I would not have volunteered to ride that day.
