Reseau Sud d'Indre-et-Loire - 2 CF / Reseau Sud d'Indre-et-Loire - Charente 0-6-2 Locomotives in France


Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media

Class unknown (Locobase 9431)

Data from G Humbert, Traite des Chemins de Fer d'Interet Local (Paris: Ch Beranger, 1893) , p. 264-265.

Humbert describes these tanks as of moderate ("moyenne") power (between forte and faible) and gives details for two different RS I-et-L classes - l'Yonne and Seine-et-Marne; the other is shown in Locobase 9432. Compared to Charente engines, this class had shorter tubes and a smaller firebox. Both classes had the drive on the third coupled axle.


Class unknown (Locobase 9432)

Data from G Humbert, Traite des Chemins de Fer d'Interet Local (Paris: Ch Beranger, 1893) , p. 264-265.

Humbert describes these tanks as of moderate ("moyenne") power (between forte and faible) and gives details for two different CFD railways; the other is shown in Locobase 9431. Compared to other Reseau Sud d'Indre-et-Loire engines, this class had slightly longer tubes and a deeper firebox. Both classes had the drive on the third coupled axle.
