[ Abstract ]
We reflect here on the research carried out regarding the
inventory of the railway legacy of Bierzo and Laciana mining
regions (Leon, Spain) – integrated by local sections of the
Iberian gauge lines of Palencia - La Coruña and Ponferrada -
Villablino. The proposed method is explained, aimed at defining
a detailed database in which to record the different elements of
the infrastructure integrated in an industrial-mining landscape.
Its degree of transformation along with its current situation
were analyzed, and the proposals of patrimonial reuse were
documented. An evolutionary analysis of the infrastructure was
carried out to provide useful data for subsequent phases of
selection, legal protection and strategic planning. This study
lays out the search strategy and managed sources, and explains
the content structure as a two-way path: the inventory of
tangible and intangible assets on the section, and a sampling of
building types deployed on the line.
