We continue our journey along Le Macaron, the Coastal Line of Les Chemins de Fer du Sud de la France. This length runs from Bormes to Cavalaire: https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2018/01/08/ligne-du-littoral-toulon-to-st-raphael-part-6-bormes-les-mimosas-to-cavalaire-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-41

And the second length missed out is that between Hyeres and Bormes-les-Mimosas. https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2017/12/30/ligne-du-littoral-toulon-to-st-raphael-part-6-hyeres-to-bormes-les-mimosas-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-41

I seem to have missed out two posts in the sequence. This post relates to the length of Le Macaron between the terminus in Toulon and the town of Hyeres. https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2017/12/26/ligne-du-littoral-toulon-to-st-raphael-part-5-toulon-to-hyeres-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-39

The next post in the series about Le Macaron ...... This post focusses on a number of branch-lines which extended either side of the main-line from La Londe-les-Maures and provided access to mining concerns and to a torpedo factory. https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2017/12/29/ligne-du-littoral-toulon-to-st-raphael-part-7-la-londe-les-bormettes-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-42

Hi Keith, and thank you. I realised the other day that one of my earlier posts still relied on readers downloading a Microsoft file. I had manged to change all the others. I have now updated the blog about the length of the Central Var Line between Pont de Loup and Grasse to include the full text of the blog rather than a downloadable file. If this has been a handicap to you and others accessing the text and pictures, please review the blog post, it should be easier to access: https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2017/11/28/ligne-de-central-var-part-4-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-19 Best wishes Roger

This is the next post in a series about the Chemins de Fer du Sud de la France's Coastal line between Toulon and Saint-Raphael. This post focusses on the PLM line which both competed for passenger traffic with Le Macaron between Toulon and Hyeres but also provided an essential link into the national network through the exchange sidings at Hyeres. https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2017/12/24/ligne-du-littoral-toulon-to-st-raphael-part-4-toulon-to-les-salins-dhyeres-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-39

Hi Joseph I do hope you enjoy the posts. Roger

The third post in the series about the metre-gauge line from Toulon to Saint-Raphael focusses on one of the main competitors to the line over the length from Toulon to Hyeres - the tramway lines of the city of Toulon: https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2017/12/23/ligne-du-littoral-toulon-to-st-raphael-part-3-trams-in-toulon-and-hyeres-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-38

This is the final length of the Central Var meter-gauge railway line in Provence https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2017/12/11/ligne-de-central-var-part-15-chemin-de-fer-de-provence-35 In due course, I will publish a blog post on the locomotives and rolling stock on the line.

In November each year, my wife Jo and I visit Provence. We have been doing so regularly since 2001. We have travelled on the Nice to Digne line on a number of occasions and increasingly also become aware of the remnants of a number of different tramways. The three blog posts below were written at about the time when we were beginning to become aware of the extent of the network of these lines. https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2013/12/10/chemins-de-fer-de-province https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2013/12/11/chemins-de-fer-de-provence-2 https://rogerfarnworth.wordpress.com/2013/12/12/chemins-de-fer-de-provence
