    Afternoon All,

    I used to have some pictures of the Rive Bleue Express on Fotopic but these, of course, are long gone. However, if anyone didn't see them then, or would like to see them again, they are now on Flickr. This is the first one :

    The Rive Bleue Express was a steam (at weekends) tourist train that used to run between Le Bouveret in Switzerland and Évian-les-Bains in France. Unfortunately, the track and structures on the French side became unsafe and the train was withdrawn. 1998 was the last year of operation so I was jolly lucky to go there that year and get these few pictures.

    Hope that they are of interest.
