[updated June 11, 2020 at 12: 20 pm] While the secretary of State for Transport Jean-Baptiste Djebbari had assured that 100% of the TGV would be outstanding on June 24, 2020, the SNCF has just delete, without notice, many trains in the months of July and August 2020, even if, according to the railway undertaking, it is only 5% of the trains planned this summer. So, this Tuesday, June 9, of the users of the SNCF have received by SMS or by email the announcement of the removal of their trains scheduled between late June and late August. Fortunately, users can redeem or exchange without charge to their ticket...

Contacted by The Point, the SNCF justifies such a readjustment of supply because of the low rate train booking this summer : 10 to 15 % only of the positions identified in July have been sold, and only 6% of places were sold during the month of August. "The level of bookings is very low, we are trying to streamline the trains. This is only for very few trains, and usually there's always one just before or just after on which clients will be able to see", she reassured.
