All the crossing houses on this line are the same layout, built in 1864 the line runs from brest to Quimper. When it originaly opened it was from Landerneau in the north of Finistère to Savernay near to St Nazaire in Loire Atlantique. A particularity is thet the ridge tiles are in metre lengths and are made of cast-iron. Many of these houses are still lived in but the SNCF have had a policy to demolish rather than sell these houses over the last 10 years.
