SNCF traction depot postcodes.

Any websites, lists with these on?

Not that I'm aware of, but Googling the depot name more often than not yields a postal address...

You might have to go manually searching through all the results, though.

Yes I suspected as much, thank you though Peter.

I do not think that the postal codes is the problem. Try to find them all in a huge country.

I find these city (or part of a city) as being a depot:
Achères , Avignon Dépôt ,
Béziers , Bordeaux ,
Châtillon-Montrouge , Caen , La Chapelle (Joncherolles) , Chambéry , Chalindrey ,
Dijon Perrigny ,
Lille , Le Landy , Lens , Limoges , Longueau , Lyon Vaise ,
Marseille Blancarde , Montrouge , Metz ,
Noisy le Sec , Nantes , Nevers ,
Paris La Villette , Paris-Sud-Est , Paris St Lazare , Paris Sud Ouest ,
Rennes ,
Strasbourg , St Gervais les Bains , Sotteville ,
Toulouse , Thionville , Tours St Pierre ,
Villeneuve , Vénissieux , Vitry (Les Ardoines)

Postcodes in France do not home in on a specific location like UK postcodes do, so a postcode in itself is not always a help to the exact location, where you would need street and code.

Best option is to google 'SNCF Depot de...'

You will likely get wikipedia etc entries giving an idea of the location

I did this for Dijon Perrigny and got:


https://annuaire.laposte.fr/transpo...-triage-de-perrigny-les-dijon-55204944700501/

For lists of depots an old edition of a spotters book will list the names of depots (eg Metz Sablon, Villeneuve St Georges, Limoges etc etc)

OK thanks very much for that guys, appreciate your efforts and responses. Off over there this weekend, just hitting a few depots in the North, the trips mainly aimed at bashing Rouen, Sotteville for the loco dump, I` know where that one is.
