"In 1873, Carril, a parish in the municipality, became the terminus of Galicia's first railway line, the Cornes-Carril line, and that first station now houses the railway museum. The history of Vilagarcía de Arousa changed completely with the arrival of the first train, and here are examples of this, along with scale models and interactive games that make this a center that ensures the conservation and restoration of railway cultural heritage."
