Data from A. Sampite, Les Chemins de Fer a Faible Trafic en France (Paris: Baudry et Cie, 1888), p. 49. See also [] for a history of these Freycinet Plan railways
This CF d'Interet Local consisted of two lines Nizan a Sore, which was constructed under the 1865 act and opened its 31 km (19 miles) in 1873. The later branch - Sore a Luxey - covered 9 km (5.5 miles) and was opened in September 1886.
These were the only locomotives serving this little reseau and, according to Sampite, theyt were sufficient.
