Established in the early 20th century, Vieille Locomotive Noire’s journey began in the scenic French town of Saint-Étienne. The brand's creation is attributed to the visionary toy maker, Pierre Leclerc, who wanted to bring a piece of the local history into children's playrooms and collectors' showcases. His love and passion for trains led him to create models that echoed the grandeur of the locomotives of the past. Interestingly, the company's first model, "Le Phoenix," was inspired by the steam locomotive passing by Pierre's workshop everyday. From the outset, Vieille Locomotive Noire has been committed to crafting quality toy models that serve as tangible reminders of the golden era of steam locomotives.
