It passes through villages, rivers and rivers. Although the pinecone train is not long, the car is beautiful and the seats inside are comfortable. The pinecone train will transfer to one of the stations later. Bus, because the mountain trains inside have not passed, so it was replaced by cars, small train tickets are more than 20 Euros, very worthwhile to ride.

The pinecone train's first trip dates back to 1891. More than 100 years later, the steam locomotive was still in operation, and the humble rural station was still the same. The pinecone train runs from Nice to Digne-les-Bains in the hinterland of Provence, with a total length of 151 kilometers and a speed of less than 70 kilometers per hour. The train traverses or spans more than 50 tunnels, bridges and viaducts.
