The Decauville factory in Petite-Synthe produced prefabricated narrow gauge railway track and rolling stock from 1903 to 1922 in Petite-Synthe near Dunkirk, France.

History
The factory belonged to Etablissements Decauville ainé, a French manufacturer focussing on the production and sales of narrow gauge railway material. The factory was located near the Aciéries de France in the Nord département in northern France.

The plant produced narrow gauge railway equipment for the colonies. It was sold in 1922 and its activities were taken over by the Decauville factory in Marquette-lez-Lille.
