Journy

Journy (French pronunciation: [ʒuʁni]) is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais département in the Hauts-de-France region of France[3] 10 miles (16 km) west of Saint-Omer.

The Chemin de fer d'Anvin à Calais opened a railway station at Journy in 1881.

[6] The local newspaper l'Independent reported that in April 1908, 70 acres (280,000 m2) of the Dornes and 35 acres (140,000 m2) of woodland of Journy were burning, with a fire still burning 3 hours after the passing of the train, which justified a police investigation.
