Sncf BB 8503 (dc electric). Though it is seen there in a nice landscape, this engine is not the pride of SNCF maintaining. She lost its front numbers, and side numbers have bad appearance.
<br>This long train is here sided in Pauillac, waiting for departure to Bordeaux. It is composed with empty containers carriers, coming from the terminal of Le Verdon.
<br>Do not forget that Pauillac offers other matters to explore than its railways station.

later body variant. - SM]</i>
