SNCF-SNCB BB67579 & BB67460 at Hennuyères, 2nd June 2022.

            June the 2nd 2022 at 09:45. Running alongside Rue d,Ascotte connecting Braine-le-Compte and Hennuyères, Wallonia, Belgium, a pair of SNCF BB67400 locos lead by 67579 working in multiple with 67460, hauls train 47877 for the Quenast ballast Quarries. The train, which started out at 07:17 that morning in Somain, France, is on the final three weeks of an SNCF campaign to get track ballast from the Quarries near Tubize into France using these quinquagenarian locos. Beginning on May the 30th, a Monday, the campaign will end on the 17th, a Friday. Twenty four wagons make up the empty load which will be swapped for an identical formation at Quenast, the end of a five kilometre south facing branch line from Tubize, bought in the day before, for the return trip to Lens in the afternoon.

Postscript.. The trains run ended early, running from May the 30th, the final delivery of Quenast track ballast for Lens hauled by the BB67400 ran on June the 9th just one week after this photo was taken, using BB67629 in blue and BB67460 pictured here.
