[edit] Page Additions

I have tons of material on this subject and hope to have the time to contribute it soon. ThePromenader 20:03, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

History up - I will add some photos tomorrow if I can - cheers! ThePromenader 22:56, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

I am looking for some "free of rights" photos and plans to place here - this will have to wait until my next visit to the Paris Historical Library. Soon I hope as I need many other things there as well... I put a picture of my own up for the time being. Cheers. ThePromenader 23:01, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Heyup, following our quick conversation the other day ThePromenader, I have added a fair bit to the article and hope if relevant to add media on the Commons. I'll look into creating a category if it does not already exist. —Captain scarlet 13:42, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Abandon

The Petite Ceinture has been in abandon since 1934 - and has had many uses since. Some of it today is parkland, even more is entombed under "dalles" of concrete. The PC has its 'characters' as well - "L'homme du bois" comes to mind. A few of the stations have been recuperated - Vaugirard by a tennis club, the Fléche d'Or Café by a cafe/nightclub... there's much that can be added here, in addition to its gradual decline into disuse. There's also the electrified 'le petit train', formerly Paris-Auteuil... bref, lots to add as an infomative plus to a very 'history' article. This is where I'll be.
