The ex SNCF Cockerill 85 ton machine stored at Mulhouse has moved - see articles as follows: ( ignore the comment about it being the only survivor - that at Culoz Scrapyard still exists. ) 85t Cockerill (4 built in 1945) GD 581 ex GD 481 (ex Dijon shed), shown in your list as stored at Mulhouse, where there was no space for it, has been put in the care of the AAATV-Mo at Montluçon roundhouse for a period of 15 years. It arrived there 10 days ago: http://www.lamontagne.fr/auvergne/actua ... 10822.html http://www.passion-metrique.net/forums/ ... f=8&t=9288 Members of AAATV have been working for 3 years to make this happen, among other things it needed to have a broken axle replaced. They plan to restore her to working order. It was converted to diesel in 1970 and was in operation until 2007 at Dijon. The society will receive funding from "Fondation du Patrimoine" for the3 restoration work: https://www.fondation-patrimoine.org/fr ... ucon-15605 |

A most unusual preservation........ A Cowans Sheldon BDC from Myanmar ( TSC 9885 ) was gifted to the Yunnan Railway Museum in Kunming in late 2012. It is now on show in the open at that museum. Right at the bottom of this article/report are a couple of phots of it en route. http://www.myanmarailways1877.com/eng/c ... n-workshop About half way down this report - pic of crane at site. http://www.chinesemodeltrains.com/tripr ... 6trip.html |
