Gare de Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët.

La gare de Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët est une ancienne gare ferroviaire de la Manche, située sur le territoire de l'ancienne commune de Parigny.

Elle était située sur les lignes Domfront-Pontaubault (entre les gares d'Isigny-le-Buat et de Fontenay-Milly) et Fougères-Vire (entre les gares des Loges Marchis et de Fontenay-Milly) aujourd'hui voies vertes.

La correspondance était possible avec la ligne ferroviaire Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët - Landivy à voie étroite.

Histoire

Dès 1885, à l'annonce de l'arrivée prochaine du chemin de fer, 650 Saint-Hilairiens signent une pétition contre le choix de placer la gare à Parigny, trop loin du centre.

Elle est inaugurée, en même temps que la « lumière électrique », le 16 juin 1889 par le député Arthur Legrand et le maire Félix Genest. Avant la première Guerre mondiale, elle emploie 60 personnes. Elle ferme aux voyageurs en 1939.

Elle est visée le 7 juin 1944 par des avions alliés isolés, sans faire de victimes.

En août 1944, à la demande du général Patton qui veut relier Cherbourg au Mans (Sarthe) par le chemin de fer, 36 convois passent à Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët .

Le dernier train de marchandises y passe le 24 septembre 1989, mais la fermeture définitive et officielle n’a lieu que le 5 février 1993 ; le bâtiment voyageurs est démoli le 17 juin 1996 sous le mandat du maire Michel Ganné .

Depuis, le site est remplacé par la Zone artisanale des Cheminots et traversé par la voie verte nommée Véloscénie qui relie Paris au Mont-Saint-Michel.
