[@peterowbottom1110]

Thanks so much for sharing this, I only ever did these lines on the railcar but thankfully I did!!

[@manuelsousasantos]

Comboios: Linhas do Tua e do Côrgo (desactivadas) e Linha do Minho. Autocarros e trolley's: Baixa do Porto. Os trolley's já não existem.

It changed a lot in the last 20 years. The square in Porto (at 17 min) is not that green anymore. And unfortunately i've never been on a UTD 0600 train. Now second-hand Spanish trains do the job on the Douro Line. And the branch line are all closed. Very sad :( I hope they will stop the construction of the Tua dam.

Thanks for those comments. There has been a sad decline in the railways of Portugal since I first visited in 1992. I loved most of the diesel types and such a shame the narrow gauge has virtually gone. I was always a bit disappointed when 0600 DMU turned up instead of a 1400 diesel

They are sadly. I managed the Tua line to Braganca 1990 and the line to Amarante the same year. Ambas boas aventuras (Both Good Adventures)

Tua dam does NOT influence the operation of tua line, the IP/REFER did elevate the line to a higher altitude, and this is possible, if you know some about civil engineering. Thanks From a Civil Enginner student in Faculty of Enginnering of University of Porto (FEUP) and a future minister of transport, who knows

Agora so estamos é 30 anos mais velhos e os nossos autocarros foram obrigados a levar "andamos a todo gas" nos tectos... e mai´nada
