The Étretat-Ifs Railway is a short 15km single-track, standard-gauge French railway, located in the Seine-Maritime department which served the seaside resort of Étretat from the Ifs station located on the line from Bréauté-Beuzeville to Fécamp. Inaugurated in 1895, it has been closed to all traffic since 1972. However, the station remains intact and has experienced a new life as part of a small tourist railway - Train touristique Étretat-Pays de Caux, the railway line was revived in 2000, offering railway services on the section of line between the Loges-Vaucottes and Étretat stations.

Étretat station was a terminus station named after its famous chalky cliffs at the start of the 14.9km route, connected to the east is a uphill slope with 15-20% inclination to Loges-Vaucottes, Bréauté-Beuzeville and to Ifs, which branches off on the Paris to Le Havre line at Bréauté-Beuzeville station. While many railway lines served the port cities of the department of Seine-Inférieure in the last quarter of the 19th century, Étretat was for a long time not connected to any railway line, despite the growing success of its seaside resort and fashion business. Neglected by the Freycinet plan of 1879, the small town has finally received a railway line when it was declared on August 17, 1885, as a branch route of Ifs station from the line from Bréauté-Beuzeville to Fécamp. This same law grants the route to the Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Ouest. Construction was delayed and was not put into service until June 22, 1895.

Étretat railway.

Until the First World War, the commute service was provided by three or four daily trains from the Fécamp depot, especially 030 T 3000 and 3500 placed at the head of short convoys. In the summer, trains were routed directly to or from Paris, passengers did not have to change trains at Ifs and/or Bréauté-Beuzeville. The First World War led to a notable reduction in traffic limited to two daily shuttles; the line saw heavy use to carry wounded British soldiers to Étretat where a large hospital was installed to treat combat casualties.

Étretat did escape the initial massive closures of 1938, but all commercial operations were interrupted during the Second World War, trains instead ran on the railway, loaded with materials intended for the construction of the Atlantic Wall. It further saw use after the Normandy landings, for the United States Army convoys. Regular traffic was restored in 1945 at the rate of two daily shuttles but they were abolished on June 30, 1951. Rare freight trains still circulated on the line before it was also closed to freight on April 3, 1972. Wikipedia
