Just returned from a short trip to Mallorca staying neat Pollensa. One thing I did not find much about before the trip was the light railway that runs on the island. All lines run to  Palma - Inca - Manacor and Palma - Inca - Sa Pobla The tickets can be bought from a touch screen machine (with an English option) and are very cheap. The train is a new diesel powered rapid transit type running on a narrow gauge line. From San Pablo in the north it takes about 40 minutes to Palma. A far better way to get into Palma than by car with the traffic and parking hassle. Note: This is not the tourist railway to Soller.
