Who hasn't heard of the PLM line? This line, which is more than famous in France, put into service between 1847 and 1855, connects the three largest cities, namely Paris, Lyon and Marseille. It is still called the "Imperial Artery", it was the main line of the mythical Le Mistral train, and was used in 1954 to set the first rail speed record.

863 km long, it is electrified at 1500 volts DC, and is complimented by the high-speed line in its entirety. Today, there is no longer a train linking Paris to Marseille directly via this historic route.
It is between Marseille and Lyon along the Rhone Valley that we will cover the route in this new video. On this beautiful summer day, you can admire the beauty of this line bordering the left bank of the Rhône, after leaving the beautiful city of Marseille, and crossing the city of the popes.
We wish you a pleasant viewing experience, do not hesitate to like this video if you enjoyed it and to leave a little comment. Have a good trip!
