%X Le TGV a suscit¨¦ en France, ¨¤ c t¨¦ de gares urbaines assez bien ins¨¦r¨¦es en ville, des gares ¡°exurbanis¨¦es¡±, stations de plein champ, cr¨¦¨¦es de toutes pi¨¨ces et bien souvent ¨¤ la demande d¡¯¨¦lus locaux. Ceux-ci en attendaient de multiples bienfaits dont le d¨¦veloppement d¡¯activit¨¦s aupr¨¨s de la gare. La plupart de ces attentes n¡¯ont pas ¨¦t¨¦ satisfaites. Pourquoi alors existe-t-il toujours un fort ¡°d¨¦sir de gare¡± chez des ¨¦lus locaux, des responsables ¨¦conomiques, voisins d¡¯une ligne ¨¤ grande vitesse en service ou ¨¤ construire ? Pourquoi d¨¦daigne-t-on le passage des TGV en gare centrale ? Pourquoi ignore-t-on les connexions TGV/trains r¨¦gionaux pouvant irriguer en profondeur les territoires ?Nous interrogerons l¡¯image per ue du TGV, les comp¨¦titions interurbaines, les rationalit¨¦s ¨¦conomiques, les conceptions territoriales pour rendre compte de ce ¡°d¨¦sir de gare¡± et pour conclure ¨¤ l¡¯imp¨¦rieuse n¨¦cessit¨¦ d¡¯un cadrage national des r¨ºves d¡¯une grande partie des ¨¦diles fran ais, un peu trop prompts ¨¤ d¨¦m¨¦nager le territoire ¨¤ leur profit suppos¨¦. The French TGV (High Speed Train), beside urban stations well integrated in the city, created some ¡°out of town¡± railway stations in the open fields, very often by request of local elected officials. Those officials expected many benefits, particularly the development of activities around the station. Most of these hopes have not been fulfilled. So, why does a strong ¡°desire for a station¡± still exist among local officials, economy leaders neighbouring a High Speed Line (LGV) in operation or to be constructed ? Why is the passing of TGV through central stations so much spurned ? Why are connections between regional trains (TER) and high-speed trains (TGV) nearly always ignored ?We shall examine the perceived image of TGV, interurban competitions, economic rationality, territorial concepts in order to account for this ¡°station desire¡± and to conclude how it is necessary to frame nationally the dreams of a large part of French officials prompt to move the territory for their own supposed advantage.
