SNCF Steam Dump near Rouen, 13th November 1969
Seen from my passing train from Paris Gare St. Lazare to Dieppe, a yard south of Rouen, presumably in the Sotteville area, is a temporary home for several dumped steam engines destined for scrap. The main subject is a 231G Pacific together with a 140C 2-8-0, several tenders and other rusting hulks... Thursday 13th November 1969. Slide No. 4663.
