Railway built in 1916 for the Battle of the Somme. It was used to supply trenches and artillery during WWI, and was then used by the sugar plant in Dompierre. Now, the little train is used for tourist purposes and offers a great panoramic view over the Somme Valley as far as the Santerre plateau on a 14 km round-trip from Froissy to Dompierre.
Along the way, visitors will notice the zigzag to get up the hill.
The museum situated at the departure point displays a large collection of narrow-track rolling material.
