Aurel Sercu Posted 8 July , 2003 Share Posted 8 July , 2003 I am asking this on behalf of a contact (English). He intends to visit the Somme area end of July. His problem : locating ... "... a site on the Somme where a French farmer has reconstructed a stretch of narrow gauge railway. A team called the 'Salvage Squad' restored a First World War Simplex locomotive, and transported it out to run on the track. If you know the exact location ..." Who knows where this location is ?
