This is the site for French cancellations - a little too sophisticated for me

It's a Train line cancel (???- Nevers),can't make out the first location.
So it should be a Type II cancel, link below:

Why, in your oppinion was it necessary to have two TPO stamps, from obviously two destinations that are close to one another.
Shouldnt it have only one cancellation when it becomes onboard the train?

Just wondering

Thanks

The cancels were applied often in pairs but not always.The exact route the letter took after arriving in Nevers I don't know.The cancels just
indicate where the letter was taken in by the Postal system.In this case it was Chagny.
