CHEMIN DE FER DE LA VENDEE

MORTAGNE SUR SEVRE

Fasten your seat belts! You are about to set off on a 2½ hour journey back in time.

From Mortagne sur Sèvre to Les Herbiers and back again, you and your fellow passengers will be transported through a succession of picturesque landscapes visible only from the train, and during the turn-around at Les Herbiers, you will get to know the signs and signals made famous by the railwaymen of old. Activities for children (aged 5-13). Enjoy lunch or dinner in the restaurant car, which is housed in an authentic Orient Express carriage complete with original fittings.
For technical reasons beyond our control the engine may be changed without notice.
