Another France tour in 1966
Winter 66-67, from Rennes-la-Janais, where is made the Citro?n Ami 6, to Paris by the longest way in 24 hours.
Notice the DS for the assistance behind.
Main roads out of order explain the Citro?n flexible suspension (2CV, Ami, DS at this time). Cars are adapted to their environment.
55 years later, 2CV small mechanical is showing always its endurance in the "Tour de France" caravan. :thumbs up:
Eddy Merckx, winner of "Tour de France" 1969.
The car is an Opel Kadett

Bugatti railcar or the Bugatti Royale Type 41 for everyone
In front of the marketing failure of the Type 41 aka Royale, Ettore Bugatti decided to create a railcar powered by the gigantic Royale engine eight aligned cylinders (12.7 liter). First test began in 1933.
PLM is the name of railway company : Paris-Lyon-Mediterran?e
A railcar bogey
Three railcar engines awaiting fitting
Two railcars Presidential model
The double railcar
First class compartment

Micheline bi-mode type 24, thermic or electric 1500 Volt Direct Current.
Current return by snubbers between the wheels.
Like a tramway at Blida in Algeria.
A Micheline restored by Michelin
Micheline with "m" in theory because it was became a common name for people at this time.
