A delegation from “Les Amis de La Martinerie” on a mission to Bourges

Always looking for documents and items about “La Martinerie”, a delegation from our association, Daniel, Jean-Jacques, Martial, Philippe and Roland, went to the “Musée du Matériel et de la Maintenance” to consult, record and photograph various documents from the museum archives about CISM and ESMAT.

This will be the first of a series of visits since a lot of documents and items remain to be unearthed

One important discovery though, the ESMAT flag currently displayed in the “Musée du Matériel et de La Maintenance”.

A warm welcome, a day full of surprises, a trip down to memory lane with a lunch at the mess and a quick visit of the “Musée du Matériel et de la Maintenance” and the new “Musée du Train”.

A VIP tour that will soon be accessible to all the members of our association.

Pictures of the new “Musée du Train” will be soon avaible on our website.

Thanks to Colonel Krause and his team for their warm welcome, their availability and kindness.
