Roadside Narrow Gauge

Former DR 0-8-0 99 3461 (Vulcan Stettin 3852/1925) at the eastern end of the extremely pleasant Petit Train de la Haute-Somme, in NW France. The line was previously known as the CF Froissy-Cappy Dompiere. A 60cm gauge line which owes its origins to WW1 and later the transport of sugar beet. It includes canalside, woodland and wide open roadside stretches like this. Difficult not to think about the appalling loss of life which occurred in these parts during WW1. This shot taken on a private visit on 10th May 2024.
