Ribeirinha

Railbus driver's view of the since closed station at Ribeirinha on the narrow gauge Tua Valley line from Mirandela in March 2008. At this time two trains a day made the full length journey down to the Douro Valley junction station at Tua but there were a couple of additional ones serving the small stations in the upper reaches of the valley around Mirandela. However, 2009 saw the line close after one of the railbuses derailed on poor track and it has never reopened.
