Military use of a Tubize Lilliput locomotive

Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Eine von sechs Lokomotiven mit dem Spitznamen "Lilliput". Diese kleinen 2C1 "Pacific" fuhren auf 60-cm-Spur (Decauville). Sie waren für den Ausstellungsdienst konzipiert und stellten eine schöne technische Verkleinerung von großen Maschinen dar.
Français : Une des six locomotives surnommées "Lilliput". Ces petites 2C1 "Pacific" circulaient sur une voie de 60 cm (Decauville). Elles étaient conçues pour le service d'exposition et représentaient une belle réduction technique des grandes machines.
Nederlands: stoomlocomotieven met de bijnaam “Lilliputs". Deze kleine locs met asindeling 2C1 “Pacific" waren ontworpen voor de spoorwijdte van 600 mm (Decauvillespoor) en waren bestemd om te rijden op tentoonstellingsterreinen. Ze waren eigenlijk - technisch zeer geslaagde - miniatuur-modellen van grote stoomlocs.

Il s'agit de 6 locomotives construites par Les Ateliers Métallurgiques de Tubize/Nivelles en Belgique en 1934/1935 qui étaient utilisées pour la traction de trains à passagers sur les terrains des expositions internationales de Bruxelles (1935) et de Liège (1939).

Pendant la guerre, les locomotives étaient réquisitionnées par l’occupant et utilisées sur plusieurs réseaux de chemin de fer à voie étroite au Reich allemand et en France (chantiers de construction de l’Atlantikwall, champs d’aviation, etc.)
Date ca 1939-1945
