Vagó Vores Mitjanes – PX FH 12.001

The Vores Mitjanes Px fh 12.001 wagon was built using the axles and bearings of an old electrification dresine manufactured in the 1920s to serve the electrification projects of the Norte company in Catalonia. With the expansion of these lines towards Reus and Móra la Nova in the 1950s, it was transferred to this base where it was converted into a platform wagon, and it was withdrawn from service in the 1990s, remaining abandoned.

In 2017, the APPFI recovered it, making use of the axles, bearing boxes, and part of the brake rigging. With these elements, a completely new wagon was built, similar in appearance to a medium-sided wagon, featuring a handbrake and a small balcony to access the interior, where there are wooden benches for seated passengers.

It began running in 2018 hauled by diesel or steam locomotives, delighting visitors.
