Some pictures and commentary in French here
Hello
Thank you for your help.
I write a small translation.
Mr. De Coville founded the trade mark of Decauville.
At the beginning, all the engines where built anywhere : Tubize, Couillet (Belgium) O & K Germany...
This line is absolutely not known in France. The picture shoes a 0-4-2T of an early design. It is not into the worklist, and without plates. It may had been built by Weidknecht but a part of the worklist in lost.
Into the forest there are 2 engines left, certainly the Decauville 0-6-0 T # 900.
Greetings from France
