    Interesting as I think I took a similar photo of 403 at the same location about 4 weeks earlier, and 414 didn’t appear to be serviceable!

    I think I saw pretty much everything there including the shed full of rotting trams adjacent to the line at Lamastre, which I snuck round. Really enjoyed it but haven’t been back and not sure the truncated and tourist-ified version appeals so much really.
