TGV Paris-BCN (train 9713) now - takes 6 hours 40 mins, inc. planned 38 min dwell time in stations
From 11 Dec Paris-BCN (still train 9713, amended timetable) - takes 6 hours 56 min, inc. planned 36 mins dwell time
How? 🤯
10 mins more Girona-BCN
7 mins more Paris-Valence

Meanwhile the afternoon TGV is a sort of improvement
9715 now: trip 6 hrs 42 mins, dwell times 37 mins
9715 from 11 Dec: trip 6 hrs 31 mins, dwell times 40 mins
Time saved by going via Montpellier Sud de France (but worse connections to the city!)
