Tramway of Villiers-le-Bel

From 1878 to 1949, a tram line, the Villiers-le-Bel tramway, linked the station to the village of Villiers-le-Bel. As the commune center of Villiers-le-Bel was not quite that easily accessible to the station, the tramway started between the two places. Due to the growing amount of competitors (private cars, and other buses were more efficient), the tramway closed down in 1949.
