Mallorca tram (2015)The Tramvia de Sóller runs from the Sóller train station forecourt through the city center and continues through lemon groves to the harbor wall of the "Port de Sóller." The 4.9 km long route has a 914 mm gauge. It operates at a voltage of 600 V. In addition to the original railcars (Nos. 1-3), the rolling stock includes the cars (Nos. 20-24) acquired from Lisbon in 2000. They were converted to gauge in Sóller and are now all painted in the company's livery. Tram 22 has even been adapted to the original railcars and is now almost indistinguishable from them. The tramway uses both the original summer and enclosed trailers as trailers, as well as former railway carriages that have been adapted for tram service. The tramway owes its existence to a law governing the construction of light railways in Spain. This stipulated that a railway line could only receive subsidies if it was longer than 30 kilometers. Since the route from Palma to Sóller was only 27 kilometers long, it was decided in 1913 to officially build the tram as an extension of the original line, thus increasing the entire route to over 30 kilometers. The travel time between the station and the port is approximately 20-30 minutes. P.S.: The tram driver involved in the car accident was very pleased with the video footage, as it was very helpful as evidence.By Strassenbahnfreak - January 22, 2015.
