steam locomotive styled Lens station, France

 

The station, in the Pas-de-Calais region, was completed in 1927 and its design, by architect Urbain Cassan, is supposed to resemble a steam locomotive with a 23 metre high tower as the funnel. In 1984 it was listed as a French national Monument Historique.  In the courtyard in this pic there looks to be a couple of Chausson buses.
