El Carmonilla
In the northern part of Carmona, beyond where the Cardus Maximus Roman road is extended, there is a small square with a modern air where you will find one of the most popular local histories. Near the halt of Guadajoz a roundabout has been reused to install a reproduction of the train that carried out the route between Guadajoz and Carmona. The railway was authorized in 1875 and, as in other similar ways, this type of train moved there due to the strength of the coal. The purpose for this line was for the nearby mines to be linked from the north of the province and framed within the industrial plans of the industrial revolutions.
Until the failure of the model based on coal yield end to this type of trains miners and became part of the past. These trains were known by the nickname of cinders, due to the fact that the smoke that they used to give off would smudge, and therefore it would look like ashes. The cinders of Carmona was soon renamed by the as Carmonilla and said it was not racist because he rode a white and black was down. The little train on exhibition there is not real, though. This is a reproduction, made by Carmona IV Workshop School in December 2004.
