You will travel aboard our red and white X2204 railcar or the blue and white X4903/4.
The X2204 is a railcar built in 1985. After starting his career in Limoges, he was transferred in the early 2000s to Nice to handle the Nice - Tende - Limone connections, in Italy. Removed from the staff in 2015, he joined the association's park shortly after.
From its official name "diesel self-propelled element", the X4903/4 is part of the latest version of the large "Caravelle" family, well known for their red and cream livery. Built in 1975, it began its career in Marseille, on the Cévennes line: Marseille - Nîmes - Clermont-Ferrand. All the X4900s were brought together in Rouen in the 1990s. The br />
