France-Charente Maritime : Le Train des Mouettes/Saujon-La Tremblade ex-Train de la Seudre.
<br>Operated from July 2004 by Connex Tradition, this museum train brings passengers for 21km through the landscapes of Marennes Oléron. Trains are composed with renewed cars (from CFTA-Cargo workshops) and hauled by a seam loc Schneider 030 (french classification)
<br>This old steam loc was not quite reliable in July 2004, and frequently replaced by a diesel shunter.
