EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Locomotive No. 6001, a 4-6-2 Pacific type steam locomotive, proudly standing at the Lyon-Part-Dieu railway station in France. The image, taken by an unidentified photographer, captures the essence of transportation history and the grandeur of railway engineering during the early 20th century. The Locomotive No. 6001, also known as "La Lorraine," was built in 1924 by the Compagnie des Chemins de Fer de l'Est in France. It is a part of the PLM (Compagnie des chemins de fer de Paris-Lyon-Méditerranée) series, which was renowned for its powerful and elegant steam locomotives. The 4-6-2 wheel arrangement, also known as the "Mountain" or "Pacific" type, is evident in this photograph. This configuration allows for a powerful and efficient locomotive, capable of pulling heavy trains up steep inclines. The large boiler and impressive smokestack are hallmarks of the steam era, adding to the locomotive's imposing presence. The photograph also highlights the intricate details of the locomotive's design, from the ornate brass fittings to the meticulously crafted nameplate bearing the number 6001 and the moniker "La Lorraine." The engine's polished finish and gleaming wheels add to its allure, making it a true testament to the artistry and ingenuity of railway engineering during this era. The setting of the photograph, Lyon-Part-Dieu railway station, adds to the image's historical significance. The station, which opened in 1847, is one of the oldest and most important railway stations in France. The photograph captures a moment in time when steam locomotives ruled the rails and transported people and goods across vast distances, connecting communities and fueling the growth of the modern world.
