Yakatawah is right! This railway station is called "Avignon TGV" because it was specially built to receive the French "High Speed Trains (Trains à Grande Vitesse)". Another station exists in the middle of the town, "Avignon Centre", and is dedicated to slower trains.

(The TGV number 9856 and 5165 from Marseille Saint Charles to Brussels and Lille Europe - Departure : 7:12 am is planned to enter the station at the platform number 4. Please stay away from rails.)
