    I visited this museum in 2001. It has a very complete inventory of Spanish railroad locomotives, mainly but not exclusively electric. The museum is very user friendly. Here is an English translation of the Spanish-language blurb now appearing on this website:

    The Railway Museum of Catalonia located in Vilanova i la Geltrú is a valuable heritage facility dedicated to the railway world and to the service of people. Since its founding in 1990, it has been managed by a cultural body of the public sector, the Spanish Railways Foundation, created for the recovery, custody, dissemination and transmission of the historical heritage of the railway. Currently the main companies in the State railway sector are represented on its Board of Trustees. It is also part of the Territorial System of museums of the National Museum of Science and Technology of Catalonia and the network of Museums of Vilanova.

    A very nice city beach. Walking distance from the city center of Vilanova i la Geltrú. During summer season it's cleaned every day. Blue flag for top water quality. From mid of May to mid of October with different beach bars, live concerts and performances. Never over crowded.

    An amazing old place full of history and antiques. You could learn how the they lived in the past. You could see the architectural style, the interior design and the culture. Highly recommended to pay a visit. I paid only €4 for the entry ticket.

    Main street in villanova, leads up from the sea front, nice place to sit and sip a coffee. Plenty of shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. All tastes catered for. The day we went their was a market in the middle of the street selling fruit, veg, etc. Nice place for a stroll.

    Powerful work and perfect location. Really worth visiting to admire the artist's vision. Against the backdrop of sea and blue sky, it triggers the imagination.

    Of the five beaches in this long curving bay, that comprise Vilanova the most quiet and isolated. No services for bars so go prepared, Nudist in parts with good clean sands.

    Only a few minutes from the train station and Railway Museum.
    Superb exterior and the inside is a stunning blend of traditional and now. Entrance is 4 euros but as the Egyptian hall was temporarily closed, the entrance was free. New I- Pad guide - you can use your phone or the I Pad. Bring you ear buds. Only some of the collection is available on the I Pad but it's the general info which is really good.
    I headed for the library first - so atmospheric and he had such an advanced filing system for his books. Then onto the other rooms.
    Many of the works are on loan from the Prado so you have El Greco's St Francis of Assisi , The Holy Family and some Goya portraits too.. The Catalan greats like Rusinol and Casas are well represented.
    Upstairs is sheer Modernist heaven -
    Stayed until closing time at 2pm - great experience

    A quiet beach, 2 km from the city center, surrounded in a part by houses and a restaurant (be aware: pricey and mediocre) and in another by a cliff, where nudism is allowed.
    The bottom part is uneven, sloping, a bit inconvenient for walking, the sand is coarser than other beaches in Vilanova.
    But always a beatiful place to see.

    Beautiful architecture. It’s pretty tiny but nice and quiet. Also beautiful on the outside area. Nice to see but not much to see.

    This is not the largest market, but it has lots of interesting produce at good prices and all well presented and fresh. Also it is in a hall which is good in the unlikely event of bad weather. Many restaurants in the area too.

    Visit the town square from 6;30 pm, take a table and people watch, wonderful. Bar, Can Solar has a great wine and cava selection, and is a real local institution.

    Yes, on the seafront of Vilanova you find the easy walking prom from the fish market alongside the marina.
