the 24 km from St Claude to Morez involved 18 tunnels, 9 viaducts, 2 bridges, 86 aqueducts and 113 retaining walls |
Having mentioned Saint Claude, here are some Geoff Churchman pics showing the station area, and one showing monuments to the town's main claims to fame - smoking pipes and diamonds.
From here to Morez (see earlier post) is a worthwhile scenic trip, in fact even further in both directions. South of Saint-Claude, however, there are not many trains.
