Story
esigned by Gaston du Bousquet, it is a four cylinder compound on the de Glehn system. De Glehn and du Bousquet worked closely together on compounding. The inside Low Pressure cylinders were not in line, but staggered, which helped the rigidity of the chassis. Only two were ever built. In 1937, Nord sectioned the loco to show the internal workings of the machine which ensured its survival. SNCF presented it to the National Railway Museum at Mulhouse in 1971.
