FR La ligne Train des Pignes Central-Var est une ancienne ligne de chemin de fer à voie métrique française reliant Nice à Meyrargues par Grasse et Draguignan.
C'était une des trois lignes du réseau « Sud-France », repris en 1925 par la société des Chemins de fer de Provence. Fermée au début de l’année 1950, elle subsiste grâce à des vestiges tout au long de son tracé.

Ce tunnel, abandonné pour le train, est toujours utilisé car l'ancienne voie est devenu ici une une route secondaire qui permet de relier Barjols à Varages.
