Work on the Chemin de Fer du Bocq

We’re delighted to share with you the exciting plans we have in the pipeline to make our railway line even safer and more comfortable, thanks to generous subsidies from the Walloon Region. This year we are embarking on major improvements to our line, which will benefit not only from the expertise of specialist companies but also from the dedication of our valued PFT/Chemin de Fer du Bocq volunteers.

These works will have an impact on our regular and special train schedules in 2025.

 

Embark on a journey of around 1,5 hours from Spontin to Ciney from where you will then travel to Evrehailles-Bauche
before returning to Spontin.

"Delicious meal"

We were very happy to attend to this first experience to enjoy delicious meal in this train. We appreciate very much the organisation of this event and the kindness of all the volunteers. It also was very interesting to receive all the informations about this railway line by competent persons. Nice to attend to the future experiences.

"Passionate with what they do"

I think the greatest thing in the whole experience was to meet people passionate with what they do, trying to communicate to you everything they can. Kind, helpful, with humor, a bit from the "past"; please keep it that way!

"Very friendly people"

Super activity! Very enthusiastic volunteers at work. By buying a ticket for the train you immediately support our heritage. Very friendly people, explanations in French and in Dutch. The possibility to have a drink in the old station before or after your trip.

"Glorious day out in Bocq" - yearly festival (August 2022)

A super day out, friendly staff, and a beautiful train ride through some stunning scenery. €14 for all day is a bargain. Nice air conditioned bar car on train with selection of beers.

Le Chemin de Fer du Bocq

A return to the past…

Climb aboard an authentic railcar (or tractor unit) from the 1950s for a guided trip of around 1,5 hours through the Bocq Valley, departing from Spontin towards Ciney, from where you’ll head back to Evrehailles-Bauche before returning to Spontin.

You can also take part in our special events, from a meal served on board the “Bocq Gourmand” or the “Saint-Valentrain” to a meeting with Saint-Nicolas, Easter and Halloween.

Our four-legged friends are welcome on board.
