ALL THE STATIONS IN MALLORCA / NARROW GAUGE TRAIN REVIEW / SPANISH TRAIN TRIP REPORT

[@InterRegios]

Majorca island had a consistent railway network. However, when the State-owned company FEVE took over them, they did nothing but close all the branches nationwide instead of boost and improve their working conditions, with the exception of Asturias, who saw a massive investment during the 80s and 90s, right after the rest of the country lost all their narrow-gauge rail connections. In the case of Majorca, all the lines but the main branch Palma - Inca were taken out of service, however, once the Regional company SFM was created, the whole network was upgraded and electrified, plus re-opening previosly closed lines by FEVE. Hence the trains and tracks are so well maintaned. Thanks for the video!!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Interesting, glad you enjoyed it!

[@blayer2004]

Finally this railway gets more recognition 😁

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Yes! A hidden gem! 🇪🇦

[@sxflyer5410]

would be awesome if the train would continue from Sa Pobla further to the coast though :)

[@peterjohnson1012]

Thank you for this morning's (here in San Diego, CA USA) fun run. I throughly enjoyed it! I hope one day I may visit Mallorca and your video increase my desire. Though the trains could do with a wash on the outside, as a disabled individual I really appreciate the fact the trains look very accessible.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Excellent! I'm glad I've inspired you, that makes me happy to hear. California does sound nice right now instead of crappy old London 😂😎

Bummer the Ferrocaril de Sollér wasn’t running, because that train really is awesome! You really have to go back again for it. Been there last summer, one of the best memories from 2020. :)

I know right, sad! I will definitely go back soon! 🇪🇦😁

[@johnwalker6736]

Agree entirely……..great shame.The train to Soller is the highlight of train travel in Mallorca. Last time I travelled that line was in 1981, so delighted to know it’s still open (when the repair work is completed)

[@paulwoffinden3476]

An excellent video. I have just read in the local paper that work will begin next year on reinstating the line from Manacor to Arta that closed in 1977.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

[@zanelindsay1267]

Such a clean quiet modern electric rail service, more places could use that to relieve highway congestion. I liked the video format with walk-throughs and concise explanatory captions, no narration, just ambient sounds.

Thank you, nonstop eurotrip! So, I don't know if the words are enough to describe for my emotion. But I LOVED it! Mission accomplished brilliantly, chef! First star to you! Not a minute too much or less in your video. A train that looks like a metro in addition to faster, for that the train is quite slow. No restroom but short trip so OK. Very affordable price !!! I absolutely loved everything. Each video has a different format, and I love it! The diversity of places and trains, the similarities between trains, happiness, everything goes there! Top video !!! You had a great time in Mallorca, you !!! When we visit a city, we always take the trains. So, for the tennis player, I only knew it since last week following your video, I had to learn about Mallorca and I found the information. You are great in your videos. Great chef with chef hat!

[@NonstopEurotrip]

I always go to Mallorca on vacation in summer and winter and here in Spain during Easter, well I go to Mallorca and I love these trains

[@Eltito_antoniops]

curious fact I don't remember which line I was on but between llubi and wall or between sineu and petra there is a station called sant joan, abandoned or without service

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Yes I remember that!

[@busfanoldenburg2473]

The form of the mainline trains remind me a little bit of the Dutch SLT trains that was a great video I hope you come back again to Majorca and do the metro lines

[@konfur9570]

Travelled to Manacor a few years back when you had to change trains at Enllaç for a diesel service to Manacor. Left my hat on the first train. On the return journey they switched off the engine for the downhill journey into Sineu. Hopefully they'll reopen the line all the way to Alta one day...

The rolling stock is exactly the same model as the newest Brussels metro trains. They're Spanish made by CAF.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Ah interesting, I've been on that too 🙂

[@KasabianFan44]

5:09 - this diagram caught my interest. It shows that at the time, all the regional “T trains” ran nonstop through to Marratxí, while the M2 covered the intermediate stops. But looking at the timetable now, the M2 is apparently gone completely, and all T trains (except for some 5 trans a day each way on the T2) now stop at those intermediate stations instead. Does anyone know why it was withdrawn? What’s even stranger is that in summer 2022, the M2 did run, but only once an hour (not exactly a Metro frequency is it?), which is down from the 20-minute intervals that Wikipedia claims, while only the T3 ran nonstop to Marratxí, and only on weekdays. (Also the T3 doesn’t stop at Enllaç… which is weird because it was built precisely for the sole purpose of being an interchange between T2 and T3. “Enllaç” literally means “junction” in Mallorquí/Catalan. Not sure if T3 trains stopped there back then or if the diagram is inaccurate but just an additional note)

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Thanks for the information ☺️ℹ️

[@filip78channel15]

I welcomed the news, that there is actually train network on this island. That is very good added value to the infrastructure. I can't wait to visit Mallorca and use the trains to go around. Hopefully they will reach Alcudia soon. In that way we could travel from coast to coast.

[@NonstopEurotrip]

Yes! It's a good little service actually, I really enjoyed it! 😁

[@sebastiankutter3630]

On the German Wikipedia page it actually said the company was deeply in debt and all contruction is suspended because of that. Also, the company seems to be operating at a loss according to Wikipedia.

[@filip78channel15]

@@sebastiankutter3630 That is very sad! Hopefully they will get back on track, as many public transport companies have difficulties, due to "working from home" or lack of tourism.

[@sebastiankutter3630]

@@filip78channel15 actually the biggest issue is that people compare the prices of train travel to prices of buses or planes... both of which don't need to pay for every km/mi traveled. So it's really not a fair comparison

They are now about to launch a new train that will reach Manacor, and the UIB metro will be extended to Parc Bit at the beginning of 2025.

Indeed the trains on Mallorca re quite good! I did the trip to Manacor three years ago, when the line between Enlac and Manacor wasn't electrified yet and one had to change the train in Enlac. Do the trains even stop there rigth now? As far as I remeber there is not much to do in that "town" which rather looked like a few farms, than an actuall village. However it is a huge shame that they destroyed the old line to Santanyi when they build the new airport, beacuse "the rail was in the way" - come on, you guys killed the best option to get the airport connected to the city :(
