If I'm not mistaken Germany shipped nuclear waste to Normandy, France (by train) a couple of times.

It didn't fly well with either public opinions, though.

They used the nuclear reprocessing plant in La Hague but that waste was shipped back to Germany afterwards. Same with the waste that was processed in Sellafield, though nothing has returned yet from there.

Using those sites for commercial waste is not allowed anymore since 2005 though.
