The miniature railway operates on a multi-gauge track system specifically designed for rideable scale models.
The facility is managed and maintained entirely by a local association of railway hobbyists.
The tracks are designed to mimic real-world railway signaling and switching operations at a reduced scale.
The park is built on land historically connected to the development of local railway transport culture in the Tarragona region.
Parc del Ferrocarril de Misericòrdia is a unique park in Reus featuring an extensive miniature railway circuit operated by the Associació d'Amics del Ferrocarril de Reus. The park serves as a hub for railway enthusiasts, showcasing tracks that accommodate scale-model locomotives large enough to carry passengers. The site includes a dedicated station area and maintenance facilities for the miniature rolling stock. It is situated adjacent to the Sanctuary of Misericòrdia, a significant local landmark. The park grounds provide landscaped green space that surrounds the permanent rail infrastructure.
