Fort Mahon 1916 C.jpg

Dated May 1916, soldiers working on the line with La Chapelle Sainte Marie in the background.
"During the war, the route was entirely removed between the station of Fort-Mahon and the sea as a result of a requisition by the army".
The chapel (on the site of the present church) is further inland, so it suggests that more track was removed.
