Summary

[edit]
Description
English: CF du Nord du Bousquet 3.500 Class (SNCF 230D Class) de Glehn compound 4-6-0 No.3.628 (SNCF No.230D.116) (Henschel No.10745 of 1911) in the beautiful Nord Chocolate livery at the AJECTA Festival at Longueville Depot, 8 May 2023.

149 were built in 1908-12, a much improved development of the CdF Midi’s 1301 Class for mixed traffic use. The first 25 were saturated and had slide valves but all those built later were fitted with piston valves, superheaters and, later, Lemaitre wide chimneys and exhausts. The early engines were rebuilt to match.

A very successful class with an excellent steam circuit for the day, they were very free-running and often used on express passenger trains. They were the last French 4-6-0's in service, almost seeing out French steam. Their minimalist cabs makes Churchward’s cabs of the GWR of the period look positively spacious.
