Six
years
after the first edition, his author, Pedro Pintado proposes us a new
discovery of this emblematic Castilian railroad. Though they have
changed few things into the line - unfortunately the facilities are
still closed and raised partly of the tour – during these years
there have been compiled new information and new photographies that
have encouraged us to edit this second edition with new format,
adding also more pages (up to coming to 224). The
line of the railroad of Valladolid to Ariza,
inaugurated in the year 1885 and closed to the passengers' traffic
in the year 1984 it was undoubtedly one of most forgotten in Renfe's
network. Foreseen his closing at the beginning of the 70 and though
it was saved from a premature closing, investments of importance
were not realized and it was falling little by little in the inertia
of the "secondary" lines in Renfe
up to his closing for travelers' traffic in one of few transverse
lines of the network, coming to the definitive closing of the
traffic of goods in the decade of the 90. Some kilometres stay only
in functioning in the surroundings of Valladolid and of Aranda de
Duero for the traffic of goods for a few industrial polygons.
