- The two lines Dijon-Dole-Besançon and Besançon-Montbéliard-Belfort essentially form one line, called the Saône-Doubs line. It constitutes the backbone of trips in Franche-Comté with 60% of the passengers and 60% of the Gross profit. It's along this route that the line bypasses highwayss, canals and other railways.
- The Revermont line: Besançon-Lons-le-Saunier-Bourg-en-Bresse. Second line by its importance, is, for a large part, a single track (between Saint-Amour and Mouchard).
