Midi 1314, built 1902 by SACM Belfort. For the line Béziers -
Neussargues, Compagnie du Midi decided to buy locomotives inspired by the
IV e (Baden), which was developed for the black forest railway by Alfred
de Glehn. The 1314 is part of the series 1301 to 1370, four-cylinder
compound steam engines with 2'C (230) wheel arrangement and Belpaire
firebox. The type was highly popular and reproduced for the French
networks PO, État, Nord, for Spain and Portugal and even for China.
In 1934 it was renumbered to 230-614, then it became SNCF 230 B 614. The
last locomotives of this type remained in service until 1958. Length 16.10 m,
weight 61.4 t, wheel diameter 1.75 m.
