A nice view of CC 6537 in red liveryin Rognac station in March 1994, passing by a PLM semaphore PLM, with a “Corail” express train to Marseille.
Nowadays, this CC 6500 no longer exists but the semaphore, though much older, is still there.

A picture showing two interesting items : first, the setting with overhead wires ogival shaped gantry inherited from « Midi company » and a typical building of Landes region next to the tracks. Second because it was the last time that a CC 6500 came in this region, on November 12th 2004.

This cereals train No 467 110 pulled by CC 6537 is heading towards Dax. It is seen here in Tarnos in the Landes region.
