La bête humaine

A day trip organised in october 2001 by the C.O.P.E.F. (an association of volunteers involved in restoring old trains) around Paris. We started from Gare de l'Est (Eastern station) , made a loop southward around Paris, using principal and secundary tracks and came back by the west side (from Plaisir), using a section of the "Petite Ceinture" ("The Small belt")a currently not used rail track surrounding Paris at its limits
(Scans from fujichrome velvia 50 film)

illustrer le livre.

Superbe série de photos sur la vapeur. On se croirait retournés 60 ans en arrière. Bravo!
