A rake of DEV stock dating from the 40s/50s is in the command of BB 22312 a BB-22200 class "Nez Casse" (Broken Nose). Due to the age of the cars, this might be dated summer service, a 'train supplmentaire' (extra) or a "doublement" (second section), although the DEVs did still see some fast train service on this line at the time. The DEVs were deeveloped in 1938 by Division dEtudes de Voitures, but weren't actually built until 1946 due to WWII. |
