As in the UK, different parts of France were operated by different railway companies, and had their own terminal stations in Paris with the exception of Midi which was in the south-western part of the country only. The SNCF combined all these into a national railway company as from 1 January 1938, although the state initially held just 51% of the share capital, later increased to 100%.

The Départements ran an extensive network of tramways. Chemins de fer d'exploitation.
