the Taulignan - Grignan - Chamaret narrow gauge railway
Another example of a French metre gauge steam railway for local traffic. Although the postcards taken at Gignan call it a tramway, it was officially Le Chemin de fer Taulignan - Grignan - Chamaret (TGC). Situated in the Département de la Drôme it connected these three towns, a distance of 11 km, between 1907 and 1932, when it was replaced by a bus service.
Its fleet consisted of:
* 2 locomotives, N° 1 and 2, 0-6-0T type, supplied by Corpet-Louvet in 1907 (construction numbers 1129 and 1130)
* 1 passenger car and some goods wagons.
