[edit] Spain and Catalonia
Hi there, I've made a small edit to remove a couple of superfluous references to Spain which gave a bit of a weird character to an otherwise very informative article. The reason is that the status of Catalonia in Spain is a matter of much debate and conflict, and the FGC being a sort of a Catalan national symbol, calling it a Spanish railway, in spite of being technically correct, is bound to offend Catalan sensibilities.--81.42.165.220 11:54, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- I don't think that this should matter at all. We are not here to worry about the "sensibilities" of some nationalists or separatists. It is a railway. It is in Catalonia. And Catalonia has been a part of Aragon, a constituent realm of the Spanish Kingdom, for 900 years. So until the minority becomes the majority and independence is gained, it is Spanish as well. End of discussion.

- For Christ's sake, its a RAILWAY. Why is Wikipedia such a haven for minority opinions that have absolutely NOTHING to do with the subjects at hand?Eboracum 18:33, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Broad-gauge (Lleida - La Pobla de Segur)
This section needs a thorough rewrite from someone with the latest gen. The line has been closed for the best part of a year between Balaguer and La Pobla to allow for a complete re-laying, and is due to open again throughout on 4 June 2006 using refurbished DMUs.
