Step aboard El Transcantábrico, Spain’s first luxury train, for a marvelous journey of 8 days and 7 nights between Santiago de Compostela and León. Inaugurated in 1983, El Transcantábrico runs along the same railway lines as the old coal trains of the historic La Robla Railway, which took coal from León to Biscay. Experience the history of Spain from prehistoric times to the present day…
