    The Máquina de Vapor in Martos dates from the period 1862-1963 and is an important historical artifact. This steam engine was used for industrial purposes, possibly in the context of the local oil industry or other industrial activities in the region. It is a symbol of the technological progress and industrial history of Martos and the surrounding area.

      In the province of Jaén, few memories remain of the machinery used on the railway, so this boiler from a steam locomotive used from the late 19th century until the mid-20th century to transport freight and passengers on this important railway line.
      This section of greenway, which was removed for political reasons, houses this reminder of what was once an important economic artery in the province of Jaén, known as the "Oil Route."
