In Spain there is an extensive system of gauge railways. The majority of these railways was historically operated by FEVE, (Ferrocarriles Españoles de Vía Estrecha, Spanish narrow gauge railways). Created in 1965 FEVE started absorbing numerous private-owned narrow gauge railways. From 1978 onwards, with the introduction of regionalisation devolution under the new Spanish constitution, FEVE began transferring responsibility for a number of its operations to the new regional governments. On 31 December 2012 the company disappeared due to the merger of the narrow gauge network FEVE and the broad gauge network RENFE. ==Northern Spain== In the north of the country, operated by RENFE and EuskoTren (Eusko Trenbideak, Basque Railways). At the centre of this system is a metre gauge line which runs for along the entire length of Spain's north coast. EuskoTren is the Basque regional government rail company. This company also owns several bus lines. The Euskotren Tranbia in Bilbao is a network of tramway and light rail systems. Metro Bilbao started in 1995 on EuskoTren track and has a metre gauge. The Renfe metre gauge network in Northern Spain and EuskoTren form the longest narrow gauge network in Europe. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Narrow gauge railways in Spain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
