Used by trains between Bellegarde and Aix-les-Bains-Le Revard not scheduled to call at Culoz.


The few trains between Bellegarde and Aix-les-Bains-le-Revard scheduled to call at Culoz reverse in platform C and use a connection from that platform towards Bellegarde. Culoz platforms A and B (the normal platforms for Bellegarde trains) are some distance away from platforms C/D/E. The connection from platform C towards Bellegarde is therefore some distance away from the line through platforms A and B towards Bellegarde. Some people may consider these as being two separate routes.

[fiche 05] (ERA-E 32B2-33A2; ERA-R 75C2-79B4) FR800
Note D1:- From 5 February 2024


This line runs parallel with the Lyon to Montpellier main line between Givors and Nîmes, though mostly on the opposite bank of the River Rhône, principally as a freight and diversionary route. There are intermediate links between the two routes at St.Rambert d'Albon, Livron and Avignon Centre, and few passenger trains run the full length of the West Bank line. The line is used fairly regularly by passenger trains diverted for engineering work. Diverted trains may call at St.Péray and/or Le Teil on the West Bank line, instead of Valence and Montélimar, respectively.  It is often possible to deduce diversions from St.Péray and Le Teil stops and from omission of regular stops on the main line. 
===Raccordement de Montmélian===

For such diversions, readers should check by means of the [http://www.ter.sncf.com/rhone-alpes/depliant/recherche TER Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes website], fiche 05 and its associated engineering work notices.  
This south to east curve allows trains from Grenoble to avoid Montmélian and proceed directly towards Bourg-Saint-Maurice or Modane.
The curve has been used in the 2023-24 winter sports season (now ended) by a OUIGO train pair. It seems likely that the trains will run again in 2024-25. Similar trains routed via Grenoble may also use the Raccordement.

Lines used on an occasional basis for engineering work diversions

Rhône West Bank (Rive Droite) line: Givors Canal – Nîmes (Poste 1) and branches

[the southern portion of this line is in Occitanie region]

[fiche 05] (ERA-E 32B2-33A2; ERA-R 75C2-79B4) FR24/471

This line runs parallel with the Lyon to Montpellier main line between Givors and Nîmes, though mostly on the opposite bank of the River Rhône, principally as a freight and diversionary route. There are intermediate links between the two routes at St.Rambert d'Albon, Livron and Avignon Centre.

Click on the thumbnail for a full size map.


A local passenger service between Avignon Centre and Pont St Esprit (between Avignon and Le Teil) started on 29 August 2022, following an opening event and special services on 28 August.

The line is used fairly regularly by passenger trains diverted for engineering work, although few passenger trains run the full length of the West Bank line. Diverted trains may call at St.Péray and/or Le Teil on the West Bank line, instead of Valence and Montélimar, respectively. It is often possible to deduce diversions from St.Péray and Le Teil stops and from omission of regular stops on the main line.
See Villeneuve-lès-Avignon – Remoulins - Nîmes for any use of the Villeneuve-lès-Avignon – Remoulins - Nîmes line.


For such diversions, readers should check by means of the TER Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes website, fiche 05 and its associated engineering work notices.

There are diversions by two routes in the period 12 April to 12 July 2024

Vienne – Salaise - St Péray - La Voulte-sur-Rhône – Livron – Valence Ville

TER886143 21:20 Lyon Part Dieu – 21:54 Le Péage-de-Roussillon – Valence Ville

SSuX 13 May to 12 July 2024, but probably not 20 June when the routing is unclear.

TER886145 21:58 Lyon Part Dieu – 22:33 Le Péage-de-Roussillon – Valence Ville

8 and 9 May 2024

Valence Ville - Saint-Rambert-d'Albon – Givors Canal – Lyon Part Dieu

TER886140 - Valence Ville 21:47 - 22:17 Saint-Rambert-d'Albon - Lyon Part Dieu

FO 12 April to 10 May and 7 and 8 May 2024

Additionally, the full length of the West Bank appears to be available from 3 to 21 June 2024, with stops at St.Peray and Le Teil only
