    Bonjour
    I would like to introduce a cool line to all of you, this one about a large part of the South of France near Marseille, or maybe not so close. The Narbonne—Portbou railway is an important 104-kilometre long railway line that connects the city of Narbonne, France to northeastern Spain.

    every stop on the Narbonne–Portbou railway is listed below


    - Narbonne
    -
    Port-la-Nouvelle
    - Leucate-La Franqui
    - Salses
    - Riversaltes
    - Perpignan

    - Elne
    - Argelès-sur-Mer
    - Collioure
    - Port-Vendres
    - Banyuls-sur-mer
    - Cerbère (France)
    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
    - Portbou (Spain)

    Trains

    starting with the TGV that runs on this line to reach Barcelona from Paris. These can already be used as layers of the current LGV Mediterranee: Marseille - Avignon Route.

    Alstom

    To make the line even more variation. A introduction of the first French locomotive for freight services, possibly a BB 26000

    Good idea! I really love some of your suggestions. A non-LGV French line would be needed in the game. I really love these Occitan routes. I think SNCF has some of its best liveries right there. AGCs wouldn't be bad either! First day purchase for me!

    Since this ends in Portbou you need BB7200/BB26000 to haul Talgo coaches Talgo III Catalan Talgo and Trenhotel that includes a gauge changer shed like this one
    Portbou Talgo gauge changer
