Manresa–Lleida railway

Inland Catalonia the slow way, over the Segarra plateau by Calaf and Cervera; the first trains ran into Lleida in 1860 while the coastal route through Valls took the traffic.

Adif knows this as the Barcelona–Manresa–Lleida–Almacelles line, or simply the Zaragoza line: it leaves Barcelona-Sants and crosses the Vallès, the Bages, the Segarra and the Segrià on Iberian gauge, double-tracked as far as Manresa and single from there to Lleida. It carried on past Almacelles towards Zaragoza. Rodalies, regional and freight trains share it.
