The Majorca rail network on the Spanish Island of Majorca has three lines to four destinations from the Estació Intermodal/Plaça d'Espanya station in Palma.

Lines

TIB

Transport de les Illes Balears

The main line and metro is operated by Transport de les Illes Balears (Transport on the Balearic Islands[1] ) and operates from the underground station at Estacio Intermodal/Plaça d'Espanya to Sa Pobla and Manacor via Marratxí and Inca.

The Metro

MP Train.JPG

The metro line consists of nine stations and was constructed between 2005 and 2007 at cost of €312 million.[2] Trains run daily from 0615 to 2300, with a 15 minute service during the day, reduced to 30 minutes early, late and Sundays.

The metro trains start from Palma Estació Intermodal platforms 1 to 4, where they can interchange with the main line for engineering purposes.

The Main line

Train at Inca
Remote Enllaç station

The lines start from the vast underground Palma Estació Intermodal platforms 5 to 10 and run underground until just after Son Costa/Son Fortesa station and are grade separated from other transport for their entire length, aside from some very minor level crossing in rural areas. The section from El Caülls to Inca has popular touristic mountain views, with north sections running though the picturesque island countryside.

The track is double from the capital to Inca, where there is single line working to Manacor and Sa Pobla, with trains passing at the remote Enllaç halt (with passing places at Sineu and Petra), the shorter Sa Pobla section having only single platforms. The line is being doubled on the 5 km Inca to Enllaç to enhance the capacity at this bottleneck.

Monday to Saturday, the Manacor trains are non-stopping to Marratxí, there are three trains in each direction each hour (the third to Inca) from around 0545 to 2200. Sundays and holidays, only two trains operate per hour in each direction and stop at all stations to each far terminus.

As of September 2010 services from Sineu to Manacor are suspended due to a landslip, with reopening not planned until late 2010 at the earliest. In September the Balearic Government allocated funds for the major works required. [3]
