This quartet was headed by the Bury and included Paris, la Seine, and Aigle. They were of the Planet type
Cited by Reder (1974) as a Planet type and used to show how quickly the basic Stephenson locomotive design spread. The data, he notes, are from French sources which Locobase confirmed with the book by Felix Mathias, Etudes sur Machines Locomotives de Sharp et Roberts Comparees a Celles d'Autres Constructeurs ...(Paris, Librairie Scientifique-Industrielle de L. Mathias, 1844). See also E Flachat and J Petiet, Guide du Mechanicien-Conducteur de Machine Locomotives ...(Paris: Mathias, Libraire, 1840), passim, basic data in Tables B & C, pp. 218-219.
The second locomotive was named Denis-Papin.
Flachat-Petiet's 1840 data show a smaller locomotive. Nor do the Mathias data agree with the numbers recorded for the Planet in G. Drysdale Dempsey A Rudimentary Treatise on the Locomotive Engine (1857; reprint 1970).
