The Soignes Forest Railway was a Belgian type Decauville railway, which has disappeared since its closing
Put into service in 1902, this railway linked the Petite Espinette, a place called the municipality of Uccle (at the limit of Rhode-Saint-Genèse) then served by the old line to Waterloo of the Brussels tram, at Boitsfort, on the railway line Brussels–Namur–Luxembourg. Established in the Forêt de Soignes, the length of the line is 2.5km (01.6miles).
After the First World War it was abandoned for reasons of unprofitability. This railway line transported the gravelling materials for the forest paths, and was also used to transport wood.[1]
Starting from the beginning of the drève Saint-Hubert, the railway crossed the drève de Lorraine to then follow a large part of the drève des Deux Montagnes.
Built in 1902 (just like the line), the shed[2] was renovated in 2003. Having served as a shed for the rolling stock, it is the only remaining vestige of the old railway. In the, this building served as a storage and shelter for foresters.
