I'm traveling for a few days and posting from mobile so no callouts today - feel free to claim your otter if you guessed today's genre correctly!

I'm writing today's intro while having breakfast at a lovely Spanish cafe. There's nothing quite like a tostada con aceite y jamón in the morning! The sun is scorching hot, my drink is ice cold and my food is cooked beautifully to perfection. ¡Qué guay!

Today's puzzle is a SUPERSIZED Tren!

Rules: Locate some train carriages in the grid, each of which is either 1x2 or 1x3 in size, which may not overlap each other. Each clue must be used by a carriage and each carriage must contain exactly one clue, the value of which represents how many different locations to which the carriage can be moved by sliding it in either direction of the short end without overlapping another carriage or going out of the grid. Staying stationary does not count as one of these locations.
