État 140.344, built 1917 by North British. 70 medium power freight
engines of this type were built 1912/1913 by SACM, Schneider and Fives-Lille.
Further 180 locomotives were built by North British and 20 by Nasmyth, as the
French industry couldn't deliver after the start of the first world war.
SNCF numbered them 140 C and retired them 1971, though some locomotives were
rented to the CFTA and remained in service until 1975 near Troyes and Gray.
Weight 75 t, length 19.34 m, wheel diameter 1.44 m.
