Chemins de fer électriques de la Gruyère


The Chemins de fer électriques de la Gruyère was the name finally adopted by the Chemin de fer Châtel-St-Denis-Bulle-Montbovon before operation started.. In 1907 it was enlarged by the amalgamation of the Chemin de fer Châtel-St-Denis-Palézieux. To this system was added a short branch from Bulle to Broc, which opened in 1912.
The company operated a system of just 48.2 km with a main line from Montbovon, the junction with the MOB, to Palézieux, on the SBB-CFF-FFS line between Bern and Lausanne. The Broc branch made up the total distance.
Two standard gauge operations joined in a further amalgamation on 1 January 1942 when together they formed the Chemins de fer Fribourgeois Gruyère-Fribourg-Morat.
