The Railway Museum of Mallorca
The railway line between Manacor and Artà, inaugurated in 1921 and suspended in June 1977, linked the Levante region and provided a response to the needs of transporting goods and people.
In 2010, the project to reopen the line began, although, due to various circumstances, the execution of the works was interrupted. Even so, stations were renovated, the route was outlined and a large warehouse of some 1,800 square metres was built in Son Carrió.
It is in this building that a museum project has been carried out and where all the historic trains that form part of the collection are kept. The restoration is the responsibility of the FERROCAIB Foundation, with the collaboration of Servicios Ferroviarios de Mallorca, owner of the space, and the Town Council of Son Sant Llorenç des Cardassar.
The Son Carrió train station building contains a multitude of stories and is home to a railway heritage that, thanks to the FERROCAIB Foundation, can be kept standing.
The following material can currently be seen in the museum:
- Wumag 510 railcar from 1927, under restoration.
- Wumag 316 railcar, restored
- Mallet CP E 215 steam locomotive, under restoration
- Batignolles Diesel locomotive of the year 1969, restored
- Swansea Wagon passenger car of the year 1874, restored
- Brown Marshal passenger car of the year 2007, restored
- Freno van of the year 2007, restaurant
- Track and Works Dresina - 1960's
- Railway and works train - 1950s
- 7 Goods wagons known as "Low Sidewalks" - early 1900s
Two initiatives are currently underway to expand the fleet. On the one hand, the restoration of a Carde y Escoriarza passenger carriage and two Napolitans passenger carriages has been put out to tender. On the other hand, two steam locomotives will soon be added to the collection.
The idea is to have a living museum in which the railway heritage can circulate along the tracks of the Manacor-Artà line. Furthermore, it is expected to have a strong impact on the social sphere, insofar as it will create jobs for disabled people and will be an element of great economic dynamism. The museum will also have a strong educational component for the younger generations and will be an example of circular economy.
