Broken dam, part II
Didier had some photos of the water today around noon. It was still flowing. The station was still under water:

Which dam? If it's flowing downhill through town, was it coming from the paper mill? Did they have a diversion or some sort of dam? I don't remember the area well enough.
Also, why do you catch the train in Gieres instead of Domene, which seems closer to Montbonnot? Does the train not stop in Domene?

Turns out Gieres is the nearest stop for passenger trains. Cannot stop in Domene. Lancey would be ideal, too. I once rode through there and asked, but only freight stops there.
