Dream and magic of railways in the Ariège region

Dream and magic of the railroad is the exceptional adventure of a team of model railroad enthusiasts, having used the modern techniques of sound, light and animation.

You will thus be able to discover, on 25 meters long and 500 meters of railroad track (at the 87th), many events staging not only the railway life, but also many historical sites of the Ariège valley, criss-crossed by many railroad convoys and road vehicles, enhanced by various lighting effects.

The realization is the work of a team of enthusiasts and required about 40,000 hours over two years. You will see, the time of a dream, the day, the night, the thunderstorm, the unusual sometimes .... A real mini sound and light show...
This miniature world is completed by the visit of a mobile postal sorting wagon converted into a Post Office and railway museum where several objects and documents on these activities are exposed, as well as the discovery of the interior of an electric locomotive model BB 4736 from 1934. This BB4736, lovingly preserved by the association Rail Modélisme Ariégeois, retired in 1995 and is today one of the last survivors of its series.

According to the calendar of school vacations, dates and schedules are to be consulted on the website, as well as at the various offices of the Tourist Office of the Ariegean Pyrenees for each corresponding period or by phone : 06.78.76.31.37.

Märklin : Rêves de trains

Une histoire illustrée des trains miniatures de la marque Märklin. "Rêver. Il est tellement important de rêver. Le train laisse derrière lui un délicat parfum associé au voyage. Quel homme n'a pas caché un petit train dans les méandres de son enfance ? Du premier train électrique aux errances ferroviaires, des magnifiques photos dans les revues spécialisées aux livres, affiches... Tout nous lie, peu ou prou, à la magie du rail. En vérité, nous sommes envoûtés par ce moyen de transport que le monde du jouet s'est accaparé dès sa naissance et que ni l'automobile ni l'avion n'ont détrôné.
