Tralhariz

Drivers view from the twice daily metre gauge railcar as it threads the scenic Tua River gorge on its way down from Mirandela to Tua in the Douro Valley. Sadly, in August of that same year, a fatal accident occurred when a railbus derailed on this stretch and this caused the early closure of the line. Now a planned hydro-electric scheme will flood the trackbed.
