The '''Barcelona–Vallès Line''' ({{lang-ca|Línia Barcelona-Vallès}}) is an unconnected [[standard gauge]] [[rapid transit]] and [[commuter rail|commuter]] [[railway line]] linking [[Barcelona]] with [[Sabadell]] and [[Terrassa]] via the [[Collserola]] mountain range, in [[Catalonia]], [[Spain]]. Its name refers to the Catalan historical region of [[Vallès]], whereby most part of the line runs. [[Plaça de Catalunya station]] serves as the Barcelona terminus of the line, where almost all its trains either start or terminate. The line then continues northwards and branches off twice before leaving the city limits. Its main route splits in two in [[Sant Cugat del Vallès]], forming two major branches to Sabadell and Terrassa. It has 40 passenger stations in operation and a total line length of {{convert|48.1|km|mi}}.

The origins of the line date from 1863, when a privately owned railway from Barcelona to the then-separated town of [[Sarrià, Barcelona|Sarrià]] was opened. In 1912, Catalan engineer Carles Emili Montañès created the company [[Ferrocarriles de Cataluña]] (FCC) in order to take control of the line and extend it northwards. After successive extensions, the line reached Terrassa and Sabadell in 1919 and 1922, respectively. In 1977, FCC announced that the whole line was to be closed due to the company's bad economic results. Nevertheless, the [[Government of Spain|Spanish government]] prevented that from happening by taking control of it. The line was transferred to the [[Generalitat of Catalonia|Catalan government]] in 1979, and has been operated by [[Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya]] (FGC) ever since. Currently, the most prominent intervention on the line is the extension of the Terrassa and Sabadell branches through the construction of a route underneath the two cities; the former was completed in 2015, whilst the latter did so in 2017.<ref name="terrassa2015">{{cite press release |url=http://premsa.gencat.cat/pres_fsvp/docs/2015/07/29/09/35/a8b2d0b7-dc45-49a4-bbf8-e345f3de06b3.pdf |title=Entra en servei el perllongament d'FGC a Terrassa |trans-title=FGC's Terrassa extension opens for passenger service |website=Sala de premsa |format=PDF |language=Catalanca |publisher=Department of Public Works and Transport.

'''[[Barcelona Metro]] [[rapid transit]] lines [[Barcelona–Vallès Line#Rail services|6, 7 and 12]]''' serve the line's urban branches within Barcelona, while the rest of the line is operated as a high-frequency [[commuter rail]] system known as '''Vallès Metro''' ({{lang-ca|Metro del Vallès}}). This system further includes the [[Vallvidrera Funicular]], which is also operated by FGC. The Barcelona–Vallès Line is part of the [[Autoritat del Transport Metropolità]] (ATM) fare-integrated public transport system for the [[Barcelona metropolitan area]].

Construction of the subway line was due to start in 2008 and the date of completion was estimated to be in 2010. The proposed line will link the already existing FGC station ''Terrassa -– Rambla'' with the [[Renfe]] rail line in the city, and will cover a larger portion of the city area, including the [[Polytechnic University of Catalonia]] schools located in Terrassa. Construction of the tunnel in Can Roca started in April 2007.<ref name="agrupament.net">[http://www.agrupament.net/portal/?p=187 Agrupament Ferroviari de Barcelona » Blog Archive » Comencen els treballs per a executar els túnels del perllongament d’FGC a Terrassa<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> [[Generalitat de Catalunya]] stated a budget of 178.8 million euros will be available for the construction of the Terrassa Metro,<ref name="gencat.net">[{{Cite web |url=http://www.gencat.net/acordsdegovern/20061121/01.htm |title=Acords de Govern.

The Barcelona–Vallès Line has its start point at [[Plaça de Catalunya station]], which is located directly underneath [[El Triangle]] shopping mall, on the southwesternmost side of ''[[Plaça de Catalunya]]'' ("Catalonia Square"), a major public transport hub in the [[Barcelona]] district of [[Eixample]]. The line then continues northwestwards in an underground route along [[Carrer de Balmes|Balmes Street]] until its intersection with [[Avinguda Diagonal|Diagonal Avenue]], from this point on running underneath [[Via Augusta]]. After [[Gràcia (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Gràcia station]], the line branches off thanks to a [[flying junction]],<ref>{{cite web |first=Bernat |last=Borràs |title=Gràcia |url=http://www.trenscat.com/metrovalles/gracia_ct.html |website=trenscat.cat |language=Catalanca |accessdateaccess-date=14 September 2014}}</ref> forming a {{convert|1.9|km|mi|adj=mid|-long}} stretch to [[Avinguda Tibidabo (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Avinguda Tibidabo station]].<ref name="technical" /> Contrarily to the line's main route, this branch line keeps on running northwestwards, following again Balmes Street up to its northern end, which is also the northern terminus of the branch line.<ref name="google">{{google maps |url=https://www.google.com/maps/@41.463547,2.0788906,12z/data=!5m1!1e2?hl=ca |title=Overview map of the Barcelona–Vallès Line and its service routes |accessdateaccess-date=14 September 2014}}</ref>

The main line towards [[Vallès]] bends westwards exactly following Via Augusta on its way along the [[Sarrià-Sant Gervasi]] district. It branches off again at [[Sarrià (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Sarrià station]], forming a {{convert|0.6|km|mi|adj=mid|-long}} stretch to [[Reina Elisenda (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Reina Elisenda station]].<ref name="technical" /> The main route, however, continues northwards in a backwards C-shaped route through Barcelona's last streets at the foot of the [[Collserola]] mountain range. At this point, the line runs on a succession of alternated [[Cut (earthmoving)|open-cut]] and underground sections before eventually crossing the [[Vallvidrera]] neighborhood through a {{convert|1.6|km|mi|adj=mid|-long}} tunnel in a northwest direction.<ref>{{cite web |title=El túnel ferroviari d'Horta |trans-title=Horta railway tunnel |url=http://www20.gencat.cat/portal/site/territori/menuitem.2a0ef7c1d39370645f13ae92b0c0e1a0/?vgnextoid=7fabc48fda119210VgnVCM1000008d0c1e0aRCRD&vgnextchannel=7fabc48fda119210VgnVCM1000008d0c1e0aRCRD&vgnextfmt=default&newLang=ca_ES |publisher=Department of Public Works and Transport.

Next, the line curves northeasterly, getting closer to Sant Cugat del Vallès city center. It diverges into two main branch lines immediately after [[Sant Cugat (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Sant Cugat station]]: the Terrassa branch curves markedly in a west direction, while the [[Sabadell]] branch runs northwards.<ref name="google" />

On the one hand, the stretch to Terrassa continues moving away from Sant Cugat del Vallès in a northwesterly direction towards [[Rubí, Barcelona|Rubí]], where the line's [[Rubí Operations CenterCentre|main depot and operations centercentre]] is located. It goes along the western limits of Rubí city centercentre, describing a straight route northwards to the [[Les Fonts (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Les Fonts]] neighborhoodneighbourhood. The branch line proceeds by slightly curving northwesterly, and penetrates into Terrassa city center through a route underneath ''Rambla del Pare Alegre'' and ''Rambla d'Égara'' streets.<ref name="google" /> After [[Terrassa Rambla (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Terrassa Rambla station]], it runs in a S-shaped route, reaching Vallparadís Park, then continuing northwards, terminating at [[Terrassa Nacions Unides (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Terrassa Nacions Unides station]].<ref name="perllterrassa">{{cite web |first=Bernat |last=Borràs |title=Línia Barcelona-Vallès -– Perllongament Metro del Vallès a Terrassa |trans-title=Barcelona–Vallès Line -– Metro del Vallès extension in Terrassa |url=http://www.trenscat.com/metrovalles/proj_perllterrassa_ct.html |website=trenscat.cat |language=Catalanca |accessdateaccess-date=17 June 2015}}</ref>

On the other hand, the stretch to Sabadell curves northeasterly as it approaches the end of its route through Sant Cugat del Vallès. It then passes through [[Cerdanyola del Vallès]]'s [[Bellaterra]] neighborhood before curving notably in a southwest direction and, shortly after, again in a northeast direction, reaching the [[Universitat Autònoma (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Bellaterra campus]] of the [[Autonomous University of Barcelona]].<ref name="google" /> Before curving northwesterly, the branch line crosses a part of the campus thanks to a short tunnel and, about {{convert|700|m|ft}} further,<ref>Distance measured using [[Google Maps]]'s "Distance Measurement Tool".</ref> it goes through another short tunnel as it bends west. It curves in a north direction towards [[Sant Quirze del Vallès]] immediately after. The line then enters Sabadell in a northeast direction, continuing above ground up to [[SabadellCan Feu - EstacióGràcia (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|SabadellCan EstacióFeu {{!}} Gràcia station]]; hereafter, running in an underground route terminating at [[Sabadell RamblaParc del Nord (Barcelona–Vallès Line)|Sabadell RamblaParc del Nord station]].<ref name="google" />

The line accounts for a total length of {{convert|48.1|km|mi}} and is entirely electrified at 1,500 [[volt]]s [[direct current]] (DC) using [[overhead line]]s. It is [[Grade separation|grade-separated]] in its whole length, running completely underground in central [[Barcelona]], [[Terrassa]] and [[Sabadell]].

Furthermore, in addition to regular commuter rail services, one train entirely reserved for students is operated in each direction on weekdays.<ref name="s1terrassa" /><ref name="s2sabadell" />

The current line scheme allows for peak-time service frequencies of less than 6 minutes in each direction on the Av.
