An adaption of the Vickers Vimy Commercial by ANF Les Mureaux (Ateliers de construction du Nord de la France), powered by two 370-hp Lorraine 12 engines. Its type name is often given as 'Express Les Mureaux', but the nose seems to confirm that it is really simply 'Express'. The title on the fuselage probably reads 'ANF Les Mureaux (Seine et Oise, France)'. There is a number 5 visible below that and on the wingtip. The aircraft was apparently delivered to the airline Compagnie des Grands Express Aériens (CGEA). Construction number 40 also given.
