I love the way the Vanguard’s passenger is leaning out to counter the weight like a racing sidecar driver, or me on my trike. :laughing: :laughing:

Weren’t Jacques from the greater London area?

This is a feature that appeared in a French magazine long time ago, about EDF transporting a large generator.

Some more pic’s from the EDF archives.

Fascinating, Patrick, shame I couldn’t get the print large enough to read. Do you know what the wagon is? Love the lunch break, a glass of something red with a sandwich. :smiley:

It’s a M25/26 Pacific, the backbone for so many heavy haulage operations, most of them were fitted with diesel engines, as the original Hall-Scot petrol engine wasn’t exactly that good on fuel consumption, it was more a matter of “how many gallons to the mile” :wink:

Cheers, I had something like that in the back of my mind but just thought I’d check. I remember seeing examples in Wynn’s colours too. :slight_smile:
Love the way the doors fold all the way back, handy for a quick exit in extremis. :wink: :laughing:
