Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Colorized postcard of a craft crossing the river Ain. The cable, 3 cm in diameter, measured about 65 m and weighed 132 kg. This craft was intended to carry milk from the farm of the Chartreuse to the opposite side of the river. One day a woman carrying milk was drowned by the flooding river that caused the cable to fail. The Chartreuse is now recovered by the water of the lake of Vouglans.
Français : Carte postale colorisée du transbordeur qui traversait l'Ain. Le câble, de 3 cm de diamètre, mesurait environ 65 m et pesait 132 kg. Ce transbordeur était destiné à transporter le lait de la ferme de la Chartreuse vers la rive d'en face. Un jour une femme qui transportait du lait s'est noyée à cause de l'inondation qui a rompu le câble. Aujourd'hui la Chartreuse est engloutie dans le lac du barrage de Vouglans.
