An impressive collection of engines, carriages and wagons that once graced the railway lines of Spain. Of more interest to the younger ones is the fascinating collection of model railways and the mini railway (Sat 11.30am–2pm). There's an atmospheric little cafeteria housed in one of the more elegant carriages. The station was used as a backdrop in the film classic Doctor Zhivago.
