Ree Models offers a OCEM van 30 "LIMOGES" ex-PO from the SNCF, with 3 end of convoy lights and controllable door opening, padded boxes, window grilles and black riveted roof, black ends under reference VB114S.
The OCEM 30 "Limoges" ex-PO SNCF van was a specific type of van used by the Société nationale des chemins de fer français (SNCF) that was formerly in service on the Compagnie du Chemin de Fer de Paris à Orléans (PO) network. The OCEM 30 "Limoges" vans were based on the general design of the OCEM 30 vans, but were given the name "Limoges" in reference to the town of Limoges in central France. These vans were used mainly for transporting luggage and general goods. They were designed as bogie wagons with a steel structure and wooden side walls, just like the other vans in the OCEM 30 series. They were equipped with sliding doors on the sides to facilitate loading and unloading. The term "ex-PO" indicates that these vans were formerly operated by the Compagnie du Chemin de Fer de Paris à Orléans before the nationalisation of the French rail network in 1938, which gave rise to the SNCF. After nationalisation, the OCEM 30 "Limoges" ex-PO vans were integrated into the SNCF fleet and continued to be used on the French rail networks.
