Summary
| Description | Etat 2-8-0 No.140-344 (SNCF 140C.344) (North British 21591/1917), one of 392 built for the ALVF 1913-20 for Etat and Est and became a standard "Austerity" design for France in WWI - partly because the class was a 2-cyl simple requiring little maintenance and driving skill. Many were later fitted with Lemaitre wide chimneys and exhaust. With the 141R's, they were amongst the last French steam locos in service - simple, robust engines built in North America (141R's) and (largely) Britain, (140C's) respectively. Ironic in the home of sophisticated compounds. 140C.344 was withdrawn at Sarreguemines 1974 - where I saw it that very year. 3/07. | |||||||||||||
