Step back in time and embark on a captivating journey through the history of the French railway system with this evocative image of the French Railway Alphabet - D for Disque. This striking photograph, taken in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of France's rail transport history. The French Railway Alphabet, also known as the Chemins de Fer de l'Est Alphabet, was a set of symbols used to communicate essential information along the railway lines. Each symbol in the alphabet represented a specific instruction or object related to the railway system. In this image, we focus on the letter D, which stands for "Disque" in French, meaning "disc" or "disk." The symbol depicts a disc with steps leading to the center, possibly indicating a level crossing or a warning for railway workers to step down from a train or platform. The photograph captures the essence of the 19th century railway era, with its intricate details and the men in traditional railway uniforms. The image not only showcases the French Railway Alphabet but also provides a fascinating insight into the daily life and workings of the railway system during this period. This photograph, from Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the French railway system, which revolutionized transportation and connected people and communities across the country.
