Gare de Dives-Cabourg
Dives-Cabourg's station building
Dives-Cabourg is the railway station for the towns of Dives-sur-Mer and Cabourg. The station is built in Ouest architecture and is a terminus for the Côte Fleurie branchline to Trouville-Deauville.
The line from Mézidon opened in 1879 and extended to Houlgate in 1882. The line from Trouville-Deauville to Villers-sur-Mer and Houlgate opened two years later.
From 1892 to 1932, the station was served by the 600 mm (1 ft 11 5⁄8 in) narrow gauge railway of Chemins de Fer du Calvados, linking it to Caen's Saint-Pierre station.
On Wednesday 12 May 2010, the goods yard building caught fire.[1] The fire, fortunately noticed early on, was extinguished, saving the building.
