His story

Starting from the old Sarrià to Barcelona Railway (FSB), put into service in 1863 with Iberian-gauge track and steam locomotives, suburban extensions were built from Sarrià to Les Planes, Sant Cugat, Rubí, Terrassa and Sabadell, already as a standard gauge electrified railway.

In order to modernize these old vehicles, after the Civil War, the engineers of the Sarrià workshop designed a new type of vehicle, the 400 series, with a modern look and technology. This leaves the series made up of eight four-car trains and six three-car trains. The travelers decided to christen them with the name "Granota Train" (Frog train) because of their greenish color and the large spotlights located on the front that represented the eyes of this animal.
