Description
The line was built during the First World War to link the Cote de Opale to
the important junction at Doullon. After the war part of the line was
retained to serve the Authie Valley west of Doullon. The layout is set in
the prosperous 1950’s to mid 1960’s when the line was served by a frequent
train service. In practise, the Valley has developed without the help of the
Authie Valley Railway. Several minor cross-country lines crossed the valley
with Doullon being a locally important junction. These lines have lost their
passenger service mostly in 1938 and subsequently closed to freight. Their
routes are now partly used as a footpath.
