Commune Crocodile
SNCF electric locomotive BB-12087 built in 1957 and transferred in July 1993 to this plinth at the village of Nouvion sur Meuse in the Ardennes (82) region of France.
These loco's seem to have been primarily used on coal wagon trains from the region's collieries when in service, and I'm guessing it was a regular visitor to the local rails during its working life as there is a large railway yard near this spot- although there were only sleepers & ballast stored there when I had a little drive around it.
