The Little Green Train remains stuck on the siding for this summer season too. The tourist line is not passable after the accident which occurred on the night between 27 and 28 May, with the railway bridge, at the exit from Macomer, seriously damaged by a heavy pirate vehicle. The repair of the bridge was supposed to take place quickly, but instead the situation is more serious than expected.

In fact, the Esedra cooperative, which manages the trips, had to cancel numerous bookings from all over Europe and also from the peninsula, throughout the summer. In fact, one month after the accident, the restoration work on the bridge has not yet started. If all goes well we will talk about it at the end of July. The repercussions on the local economy are serious. The same goes for related industries. A situation that is also having serious repercussions on employment. The Esedra cooperative, in fact, had to cancel the hiring of all seasonal workers .

«A dramatic situation - says the president, Rossana Muroni - this new interruption, the third consecutive in the last three years, brings our business to its knees in order to catch tourists and bring them to inland areas. Reservations for June and July have been cancelled , and the same will be the case for the months of August and September ." The Esedra cooperative had asked Arst to activate the Tresnuraghes-Nigolosu-Bosa Marina line, but the regional transport company responded sparingly. This is because at the Macomer station there is only one old train available, which is used for public transport on the Macomer-Nuoro line. We waited in vain for the intervention of the Trenino Verde Foundation.
