The Berliet AND was a light petrol railcar built by Berliet and delivered in 1924 to the departmental railways of the Bouches-du-Rhône, the first railcar Berliet supplied to that network. It had a four-cylinder petrol engine of 110 by 140 millimetres, a four-speed gearbox and chain drive to both axles, and seated 6 passengers in second class and 31 in third. It ran Sunday services between Arles and Meyrargues from March 1924, was paired with the later RCMC, and had its petrol engine replaced by a 70 horsepower Berliet diesel in 1950. It was withdrawn in 1968 and scrapped in 1971, unlike the RCMC, which survives.
