Narrow gauge lines were once common in Spain but are now the exception to the rule. Most had closed by the late 1970s but the superb Ponferrada - Villablino coal line lasted long enough for me to visit around 1980 and, more recently, the lines on Mallorca have provided material for my cameras.
Spain's railways certainly haven't lacked variety over the last 50 years, most of which is now history. Galleries here include the last steam worked narrow gauge line, an electric railway that still uses 90 year old motor coaches today and a diesel worked main line running through the arid hills of the south.
