Description
This stamp highlights the Dietrich Autorail, flagship of the Tunisian National Railway Company (SNCFT) during the middle of the last century. The monochrome illustration captures the aerodynamic design of this train which modernized intercity connections, facilitating trade between the north and south of the country. With this broadcast, La Poste pays tribute to the Tunisian railway epic and the crucial role of rail in opening up regions and economic unification of the national territory through a technical heritage that has now become legendary.
