    An important hub in WWI was Adinkerke station, which served as a shelter for the wounded. Soldiers were taken to the station by horse and cart or by tram, from where they traveled inland by train. Only military transport of ammunition, supplies and troops was given priority over the single track. In March 1915 there was a huge influx of wounded. Did you know that when Marie Curie rushed to the station in a radiology van to screen wounded soldiers. (EOS)

      De Panne station in Adinkerke is connected to the Belgian railway network; hourly trains pass through Ghent to and from Brussels. De Panne-Adinkerke is the western terminus of the tram line Kusttram, which was created in the period between the world wars and connects all places of the Belgian North Sea coast, to Knokke-Heist in the east. In addition, regular buses run from here to the French Dunkerque. Most tourists arrive at De Panne via the A 16 motorway (E 40), which has been gradually expanded over the past 20 years and leads along the West Flanders coast to France (Calais). Since the opening of the Eurotunnel, an important West-East Represents transit route. (Wikipedia)

        At De Panne station you have access to the Belgian train network. Moreover, here is the terminus of the coastal tram that runs along the Belgian North Sea coast.

          De Panne train station is the last station in Belgium along the line 73 in front of the border with France in the district of Adinkerke in the municipality of De Panne. The station used to be called Adinkerke Station. The line 73 continues to the French Dunkerque, this border link is no longer used. In the past, the railway line 76 also left De Panne after Poperinge. It is also the end point of the coastal train that starts in Knokke. A reopening of the railway line in the direction of Dunkirk is provided. The amusement park Plopsaland De Panne is also within walking distance of the train station (Wikipedia).

            The First World War was the first conflict in which soldiers went to war by train. The railway was very important to quickly cover large distances. Once the war of positions started, only two major railway lines remained available in unoccupied Belgium: the Poperinge - Hazebroek (F) line and the Veurne - Dunkirk (F) - Calais (F) line.
            These railway lines became vital for the logistical supply of troops and the population, and for the transport of wounded. Because the Veurne railway station came under enemy fire after October 15, 1914, the Adinkerke railway station became the hub for supplies from Adinkerke to the front, and a single-track line was constructed from Adinkerke to Roesbrugge.

              Move aside, move aside, make way, make way, ... we are in an incredible hurry. Avoid traffic jams? Come by train! De Panne train station is the first station in Belgium and literally puts your feet in the sand. You can easily transfer to the coastal tram to explore De Panne - and by extension the entire coastline!
