The difficult layout of the Vía Verde del Aceite required the construction of tunnels and viaducts to overcome the terrain. As we left Jaén heading towards Córdoba, we came across this first metal viaduct, which stands out for its design and the material it was made of. It is 124 meters long and has a maximum height of 25 meters. It is based on the modernist construction technique typical of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The technique is similar to that used on the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris, but it was built and designed by disciples of the prodigious builder named Dayd'e and Pillé around 1890. The pieces and structure were constructed in the French city of Creil. This technique involves joining the parts with rivets that prevent the metal from welding.

It's not a locomotive, but a mid-19th-century train car that presides over the beginning of the Vía Verde del Aceite. It's a shame that vandalism has left it like this, a witness to the present that reflects the reality of our society.

In the province of Jaén, few memories remain of the machinery used on the railway, so this boiler from a steam locomotive used from the late 19th century until the mid-20th century to transport freight and passengers on this important railway line. This section of greenway, which was removed for political reasons, houses this reminder of what was once an important economic artery in the province of Jaén, known as the "Oil Route."

The Máquina de Vapor in Martos dates from the period 1862-1963 and is an important historical artifact. This steam engine was used for industrial purposes, possibly in the context of the local oil industry or other industrial activities in the region. It is a symbol of the technological progress and industrial history of Martos and the surrounding area.

A place to fill up your bottle before setting off or a meeting point for cyclists. They are putting up a large wooden pergola, but the wagon remains the same.
