The Chemin de Fer de Vallée de l'Ouche (CFVO) is a 6.8 km-long museum - narrow-gauge railway with a track width mm of the 600th It runs from Bligny-sur-Ouche to Pont-d'Ouche in the department of Côte-d'Or in the region Bourgogne Franche-Comté in France .
Route
The route follows the route of the Chemin de fer d'Épinac , built from 1829 to 1835 , a former standard gauge railway that led from Épinac to the Canal de Bourgogne . There are alternative points in Pré-Magnien and La Garenne. Since the stop in Pont-d'Ouche is single-track and has no water tower, the locomotive pushes the train on the way back to La Garenne, where it is relocated.
history
The idea for the narrow-gauge railway came about in 1968 when a group of amateurs wanted to revive part of the old departmental railways of the Côte d'Or. The almost 7 km long route was rebuilt in sections and put into operation.
Originally the association was called ARVO (Association du Rail de la Vallée de l'Ouche), but changed its name to CFVO (Chemin de Fer de la Vallée de l'Ouche) during the General Assembly on March 8, 2003.
