Defunct Rapide 1280 "Camino Azul" (Cerbčre-Den Haag CS), seen shortly after leaving Cerbčre. Only Bc10ux Corail couchettes cars would actually extend as far as The Hague, along with the NS Restaurant-car. Conversely, the WL-T2 would not run any further than Bruxelles Midi-Brussel Zuid or Schaerbeek-Schaarbeek, while the 9200 would only remain on duty until the southern suburbs of Paris (Juvisy or Valenton).

SNCF BB 9200 - The train Capitole is passing Athis Mons in June 1961. It was formerly composed, since 1960, with four or five 1st class inox DEV coaches and a CIWL restaurant. Its composition will become red and famous in 1968. It will be therefore the first 200 km/h train in France. Photo JP Hameau prepared by Patrick Meunier www.pixyrail.com
