This “cutaway” Baltic Nord locomotive built in 1911 allows the visitor to better understand the internal workings of a steam engine, just as it did for those curious onlookers at the Universal Exhibition of 1937, where it was exhibited for the first time.

Currently it is in the "Cite Du Train" railroad museum. |
