Torras i Bages (Barcelona Metro)
Torras i Bages is a station of the Barcelona Metro, on L1 (red line). Opened in 1968, it serves the northern part of the Sant Andreu de Palomar neighbourhood in the Sant Andreu district, and was one of the termini of this subway line until 1983, when it was extended into Santa Coloma. The station doesn't include accessibility facilities as of 2008. It has two 107 m. long platforms, and it's unusual for a subway station of its kind in having three railtracks as opposed to two, due to its former role as line terminus. The current railtrack leading to Fondo is actually a secondary one.
The station is named after a road, Passeig de Torras i Bages (and ultimately after the 19th century bishop of Vic Josep Torras i Bages.
