blog-0659450001445769862.jpgThis morning I went down to the station to take some long planned train photos, to be posted in the French Railways forum, but also to take a look at an SNCF building in the old goods/freight yard. This building is in good condition other than the graffiti and appears to be used as a mess room from time to time - there are tables and chairs and a galley kitchen with microwave. Security appears to be good even though the building is at the far end of the old yard, away from the station building.

 

I think an approach to SNCF is worthwhile, though it does seem to see occasional use. It might a useful club house, should there be a club to use it! It is not far from the tracks, an added bonus!

I should add a word or two about the graffiti.  When I lived in Houston the local precinct police told me of their experience with graffiti control.  They persuaded citizens to donate unused paint, then mixed it up and painted over the worst cases in the neighbourhood.  The "artists" returned to reclaim their territory, but the community painted over the "art" as soon as it re-appeared.  Sometimes that is all it took, sometimes another coat of paint, but it would seem the perpetrators didn't want to see their "art" defaced again so went somewhere else.  Ironic!
