The spectacular Tende railway line: Cuneo - Breil-sur-Roya - Nice/Ventimiglia. This railway line was completely destroyed in the Second world war. Destroyed bridges and stations as well as burnt out locomotives and cars stayed until the 70th years. There was an idea to close definitively this railway line. In the 70th years the destroyed bridges, tunnels and railway lines were rebuilt, but many station buildings remained damaged and do not provide any service to the passengers any more. Nowadays this line is a very important railway link: Torino - Cuneo - Ventimiglia and Torino - Nice. After Limone the line is not electrified. Foto: Slobodan Ilic, July 2004 (slobodan.ilic@bluewin.ch)
