The llaguts and the railway of Fayón

Historical milestone · Fayón, Bajo Aragón-Caspe, Zaragoza

Image of Fayón, not of the place itself.

The old Fayón lived from river transport on llaguts, the barges that came down the Ebro from Roman times. The arrival of the railway in 1892 gave an outlet to the coal of the surrounding mines and made the village a communications hub.

1892
