"Costa Verde Express": History

More than four decades ago, the oldest tourist train in Spain was born: El Transcantabrico Grand Luxury. It later evolved into two luxury trains: El Transcantabrico Grand Luxury and El Transcantabrico Clásico. Today, as a representative of the elegance and comfort of El Transcantabrico Clasico since its inception, it has become the Costa Verde Express, transporting travelers to the golden age of great railway journeys while still providing all the modern comforts and amenities of the 21st century. Its carefully remodeled and styled lounges and rooms showcase all their majesty as they glide along the winding narrow-gauge track.

An evocative and pleasant atmosphere, a first-class crew, and the rich culture and gastronomy of Northern Spain, known as the Spanish Green Coast: the Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias, and Galicia, form the foundation that makes every trip on the Costa Verde Express a true pleasure for the senses.
