FRENCH RAILWAY REPRESENTATION ABROAD

PRESENCE DU RAIL FRANCAIS A L'ETRANGER

The Authors, who are respectively Ingenieur en Chef and Ingenieur Principal in the SNCF Commercial Department, explain why, because of the type of traffic they convey, the railway companies very quickly appointed representatives abroad for canvassing and sales after they were created. They explain how the agencies developed in importance for passenger and freight traffic, as well as in the new areas of liaison and general information of example: their commercial and publicity work and their internal organisation are described. The SNCF has several agencies abroad at present.
