Top day out! The steam locomotive was not running because of fire risk to dry vegetation, but still fun. Also should have been a guided tour of a village half way through, but they cancelled that with no reason. This meant however that we went the whole way along the track and I got to photograph the 1900 vintage US traction engine at the Saujon terminus.

This was a great trip. Organised by the Caravan Club in association with camping Logis du Bruil. A coach took us from the campsite to the station at La Tremblade where we boarded a diesel pulled train. This took us along the line through Etaules to Chaillevette where the diesel engine was replaced by a steam engine, this then took us the rest of the line through Mornac Sur Deidre to Saujon. In total 12 miles or 21 Kms or 1 hour and 30 minutes, a really great experience, so highly recommended
Great train ride, especially with the steam engine
T'was thé penultimate day of these wonderful amazingly creative idea.... Très sympa !
Hmmm - one for the steam train enthusiast. Countryside rather dull and flat and the terminus, La Tremblade, achingly ordinary. Very uncomfortable seats. Take a cushion and visit Mornac sur Seudre, though impractical timetabling means you either have 45 mins or 4 hours. This attraction needs a lot of re-thinking if it is to compare with other heritage railway journeys.
Beautiful way to spend a couple of hours, rattling along through the French countryside on a vintage steam train.
A great day out through beautiful countryside.
Very good lot of nostalgia
