€63 Million for Trains in Mallorca — Is That Really Enough?
Why New Trains Alone Won’t Fix Mallorca’s Rail Problems
Mallorca’s rail problems need more than new trains: timetables, staff, depots and connections all play a role.
Published: June 15, 2026
Answer
Why does Mallorca need more than just new trains?
New rolling stock helps, but it does not solve every transport problem on its own. Mallorca also needs reliable timetables, enough staff, compatible depots and workshops, and good links with buses and cycling. If those pieces do not fit together, the benefit of new trains stays limited.
