R2102. Scrap Lines at Abbeville. - a photo on Flickriver

            R2102.  A sad sight at Abbeville on the Chemin de Fer du Nord main line from Paris to Calais.  Abbeville is between Amiens and Boulogne-sur-Mer and locomotives awaiting scrapping were stored in the sidings there while awaiting their fate.  

Several different classes were stored there including 150P class 2-10-0s, 141R class 2-8-2s, and what looks like a 231E class Pacific. 

Unfortunately the slide has deteriorated somewhat over the years but, as I can't go back and take it again, this is the best I can do.
