Polish tank engine in roundhouse
Superb shed atmosphere in this small but well stocked steam shed.
Belgian, Polish and German locos side by side. 12/9/06
Treignes station at other end of line - also a non-operating day
15/9/06
There is also a railway museum at Treignes - unfortunately I arrived
15 mins too late to see it!
All was not lost though as a shrill whistle from distance heralded
the arrival of a special train ..
This disgorged its passengers to the museum and then did some
impressive
shunting moves..
..here removing the van from rear of train..
..and disappearing almost out of sight to return to station.
Seen here taking water prior to return to Mariembourg. 15/09/06
