Let me present you two of the most famous French steam locomotives.

First of all the 231 G 558, most known as "Sotteville's Princess".
It belongs to the "Pacific Vapeur Club" near Rouen in Normandy.

In this picture, it was in Sotteville depot, waiting for axle repair.

The second is the 241 P 17, the most powerfull and the newest which has been refurbished. It belongs to the Creusot railway in Burgundy.

In this picture, it was its first commercial trip to Dijon.
