Mont Blanc Express To Be Suspended This Spring

Bus Service to Replace Trains Between Chamonix and St Gervais

By Sophie Nicholson, Updated

The Mont Blanc Express train service between Chamonix and St Gervais will be suspended from the 2nd of April to the 28th of June. The disruption to the service is to allow necessary works to be carried out on the Vaudagne section of the line and a replacement bus service will be made available.

Whilst necessary, the recent announcement of the disruption to the service this spring is unlikely to be well received in the valley as there are already no trains between Chamonix and Vallorcine.
