Oise region 2-6-0 Locomotives in France


Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media

Class 15 (Locobase 6218)

Data from users.skynet.be/korm/nostalgia/stock_loco.html#hsp1316 (10 July 2004).

This relatively small Mogul tank (works #1316) was originally supplied to a network of local metre-gauge lines in the Oise. It ran on the Noyon-Guiscard-Lassigny line, then on the St Just en Chaussee-Crevecouer le Grand.

In 1998 (22 April), the Chemin de Fer Baie Somme association bought #15. As of 2004 it still operated on this museum road.
