When the (life) time of a locomotive is coming to an end, savings are often made on the maintenance of the appearance and the locomotive then appears rather unattractive. But she is still in use; and a (last?) photo is definitely worth it. The SNCF BB 67591 in Strasbourg.

Since I started photographing in France, I've often seen the beautiful BB 67400 diesel locomotive. However, its area of operation has now shrunk considerably, providing a good reason to photograph the locomotive again specifically. In Strasbourg, a few SNCF BB 67400s are used in regional service with RRR trainsets. Since two RRR trainsets have the capacity of roughly three to four "modern" trains, and the round trips during peak hours cover very few kilometers, it's not yet "worth it" to use several new multiple-unit trains. This is likely the main reason why these elegant locomotives are still in service. In Strasbourg, the well-maintained SNCF BB 67599 is leaving the depot. March 12, 2024 
