Histoire

Elle est mise en service en 1884.

En août 1944, à la demande du général Patton, 36 convois empruntent cette ligne, transportant 25 000 tonnes de marchandises de Cherbourg au Mans (Sarthe) via Sottevast, Coutances, Folligny, Pontaubault, Saint-Hilaire-du-Harcouët, Fougères, Mayenne et La Chapelle-Anthenaise.

Elle est fermée au service voyageurs en 1970 et au service marchandises progressivement à partir de 1972 et finalement déclassée en 1996.

En 2000, elle est vendue au département de la Manche et reconvertie en voie verte.
