Voie verte de Saint-Efflam

In 1916, with the commissioning of the meter-gauge railway, also affectionately known as "Le Petit Train", travelers and goods could be transported between Lannion and Plestin Les Grèves. The operation was entrusted to the Compagnie de Chemins de Fer Armoricains. This connection also contributed significantly to the development of St. Efflam and St. Michel en Grève, with their beautiful beaches, into seaside resorts.
Nevertheless, their potential for the movement of goods is not enough to generate profits. At the end of the 1920s, the increasing popularity of automobiles also emerged as serious competition. The railway line was finally closed in 1937. The memorial plaque, near the former train station in Ploumilliau, tells the short history of this railway line. Today the EV4 (Vélomaritime) cycle path runs on the old railway line.
