Petit train

Petit train is a recreational park in Lespinasse featuring miniature railways that run on recreated tracks with small-scale station scenes and landscapes. The space includes multiple routes and vehicles that display technical aspects of rail systems in reduced form.

The park began in the 1980s when model train enthusiasts created a dedicated space to showcase their hobby and collections. Over time it evolved into a regular meeting place for railway fans from the surrounding area.

The park reflects a local passion for model railways through miniature layouts and vehicle replicas that show visitors why trains matter to the region. These displays help explain how rail travel shaped French life and traditions.

The park is mainly open on weekends and welcomes families with children who want to ride the small trains or watch the models in action. Better weather makes visits more enjoyable, and comfortable walking shoes are recommended since you will spend time on foot exploring the grounds.

The park is run and maintained by volunteers who are model railway hobbyists sharing their passion with visitors. This gives the place a personal character that you rarely find in commercial theme parks.
