Ponte Leccia Station, Corsica. Looking towards Corte/Ajaccio (south). Junction for the Calvi branch.
A metre gauge railway links Ajaccio and Bastia with a branch to Calvi. New railcars are due in 2007 which will speed up journey times, but remove the unforgetable experience of travelling on the vehicles currently in use. The scenery and the ambience of the railway would not be out of place in South America.
It's advisable to rent a car when in Corsica, as the public transportation is very poor. There are only 3 train lines connecting the major cities, the rest is by bus - which at most leaves twice a day!
