Troyes Aube France 5th June 1988

Troyes Aube France 5th June 1988
Taken from the Rue Voltaire overbridge the support crew are pulling coal forward while 140C231 and its support coach are at the platform with the splendid roof of Troyes station behind.

This former Chemin de fer de l'État, and subsequently SNCF engine was built by North British in 1916. The engine is preserved by AJECTA who organised the steam special to Troyes. Starting at the Gare de l'Est in Paris it ran via Melun, Montereau and Flamboin-Gouaix.
