31 July 1993, station: Neussargues, France
SNCF diesel-electric locomotive 67444 with 'Corail' train 5948
(Béziers - Paris Gare de Lyon).
The station of Neussargues lies on a line that runs north-south through
the Massif Central from Clermont-Ferrand to Béziers. Though little used,
the line is electrified (with DC) between Béziers and Neussargues, where
trains running through on the line have to reverse direction. 67444 is
ready to haul the train to Clermont-Ferrand, where it will be exchanged
for an electric again.
