Composition chargée sur le train MLMC quotidien Le Bourget - St Pierre des Corps - Hourcade. On aperçoit à peine le lot de wagons chargés de tuyaux à destination de La Brohinière (35), malheureusement en fin de convoi.
Les 13 wagons plats sont chargés de tubes à l'usine St Gobain de Pont à Mousson (54) et sont acheminés par le service MLMC de Fret SNCF de Woippy à St-Pierre-des-Corps via Le Bourget. Ils sont ensuite repris de St-Pierre à Rennes en "train capacitaire" et finissent en desserte de Rennes à La Brohinière.

Seen here visiting Le Bourget in summer 1976, G-AZLR was the former ZS-CDU of South African Airways and was one of seven SAA Viscounts, plus spares, acquired by BMA in 1971 for the bargain price of £98,000 for the Viscounts and £37,000 for the spares. The airline got good use out of these aircraft, although G-AZLR was retired from flying in 1982 and put into use as a cabin services trainer at East Midlands It was later transferred to the airport's Fire Service before finally scrapping in 1997.
