Les Cabrils station

Operating as an SNCF railway stop, it is an unmanned, open air shelter. As of 2021, SNCF confirms the station has an automatic regional rail ticket dispenser and is handicapped accessible.[6]

Les Cabrils is served by TER Occitanie trains running between Béziers - Saint-Chély-d'Apcher station, or Millau.[7] It serves residents of the valley as a transportation link to the larger towns in the area [8]

Travel blogger The Tim Traveller visited the station in February 2021, noting there appears to have been a second track and a passing loop at the location, long since removed. Two trains in each direction travel to the location. As the blogger opted for a later morning train; he detrained at Ceilhes-Roqueredonde and walked the 8 kilometres (5 mi) to les Cabrils. The open-air shelter was noted to have a timetable, onwards travel information and a help point/ emergency telephone. Even though the shelter is outdoors, one was legally required to wear a mask against COVID-19 while at the SNCF station. A return ticket costs one Euro as the line is heavily subsidized by the regional government. The location was noted as being very scenic and people-free, notwithstanding the global pandemic.[9]

The location of the stop in the middle of nature, perhaps of interest to local hikers going to the Monts d'Orb, the Causse de Gabriac and the Escandorgue plateau, is in an otherwise "illogical" place.[10]

Marianne magazine featured the site in a July 2020 article, calling it "the most deserted station in France" and confirming how little-used the station is, even if it serves a somewhat-limited function, allowing residents of the largely rural area to access larger urban centers for shopping or other needs.[8]
