Another year the "March for the Train for the Llevant"

On Sunday, October 7, the fourth "Marxa pel Tren de Llevant", will take place, an initiative promoted by the Joves de Llevant, supported by the town councils of the affected municipalities, Serveis Ferroviaris de Mallorca, the GOB and Músics per la Llengua.

Another year, walkers from Cala Rajada, Capdepera, Artà, Sineu, Petra, Vilafranca, Manacor, Sant Llorenç and Son Carrió will cover the railway tracks as far as Son Servera, to protest for the reactivation of the Llevant railway.

In Son Servera, the arrival point, there will be a popular lunch and a protest concert with performances by Guillem Sansó, Ocults, Al Maiurqa, Suso Reixach, Es Pedregats, Spaghetti, Damià Timoner... This year the novelty is that at the Son Servera station, a video will be show with different coverage of the 'marxes' and the train on Mallorca.

The mayors of the town councils of the area (Artà, Capdepera, Manacor, Petra, Sant Llorenç, Sineu, Son Servera and Vilafranca), who are heading the "Marxa" this year, will demand greater investment from the Central Government for public transport, and in particular for the railway.
