On the Spanish island of Mallorca, the historic Ferrocarril de Sóller narrow-gauge railway has been operating since 1912.
The 27-kilometre line connects Palma with the town of Sóller, running through the scenic Serra de Tramuntana mountain range.
Electrified since 1927, the railway is still operated by historic wooden electric railcars built by Siemens-Schuckert, often referred to as “Roter Blitz”. Together with the original trailer coaches, they offer passengers a unique journey in the authentic atmosphere of early 20th-century rail travel.
This video documents regular operation of the Ferrocarril de Sóller, which functions both as a railway and a tramway, making it one of the most distinctive heritage transport systems in Europe.
