Intercites de Nuit - Motive power?

[broomster]

I'm a euro-newbie - and travelling to Barcelona by train, and flying back...

Eurostar to Paris obviously - then the Intercites de Nuit to Perpignan overnight...

Anyone know what I'm likely to have hauling the train south? I understand there are three portions :-

Paris-Austerlitz to Luchon
Paris-Portbou (my bit)
Paris-Latour de Carol

all coupled together between Paris and Toulouse.

If anyone can fill me in on what to expect then I'll be grateful

Cheers!

Most likely 7200 or 26000.

Here's my album from Paris Austerlitz in Nov 12, showing all the 7200 and 26000 activity

Thanks - I'm hoping for one of the 7200 loco's - however they both look interesting

Apologies, I mistyped the link, which went to an individual photo. Here is the full album link:

on that occasion, the top link Toulouse day trains (and I think the Cerbere working) were 26000 but they need to go at 200 km/h in places. Overnight trains don't go so fast so are quite likely to be 7200. Indeed the day 'eco' train using night stock coaches on a daytime working aimed at 'bargain travel seekers' was a 7200:
