That facade of Montparnasse is long gone. Gare Montparnasse Porte Oceanee was my boarding station for my ride on Banlieu train to work at Saint Quentin en Yvelines past Versailles, for many weeks back in the early 90s, just after Montparnasse got rebuilt ground up to become the Paris terminus for the TGV Atlantique service.
O la la, the brakes they no work so good!
