While having a picnic at Noyelles sur Mer (Nord Pas de Calais).

It's updated already - better layout, more text.

Thanks for the nice photos George . The tank engines look a lot like the british ones of the same era .

My thought was that it looked entirely "foreign".
We couldn't wait round long enough to see the train itself - we were on the way to the Tunnel and then a long drive through southern England.

Ihave now added a page of pictures of the Armistice museum at Compiegne - the Wagon Lits carriage where it was signed. Goto the Photo index.
(Not loading at present. I'll try again.)

Thanks again George . I guess we tend to think of anything european as looking british . paint job seemed similiar anyway .
enjoyed reading about your biogas digesters too , looking at something similar myself , have brought 10 acres of bare land and looking at ways to use it .
