You just ride one of the most polemical line in all Spain due its condition. The people of Extremadura always complains about delays, expensive prices and a very bad condition in the infrastructure. But in the south of Extremadura there is an Andalusian province called Huelva which conditions in the line that conects it to Extremadura is as bad a the one at Extremadura, plus the line that conects it with Seville (Which is electrified at least) only has a fecuency of 2 regional trains each way to Seville and 1 to Madrid

In 1942 94 locos of the class remained in service with RENFE at Alcázar de San Juan, Alicante, Ciudad Real, Córdoba, Mérida, Murcia, Sevilla and Madrid-Delicias. At the end of the 1940 some were transferred to Valencia. The last eight units of the class were withdrawn in 1968. Preserved 240-2081 also spent its time between its withdrawal and 1991 inside Sevilla-San Jerónimo depot and was then dumped at Sevilla-Majarabique freight yard until it was brought to Villanueva del Rio y Minas, an old mining town 42 km NE of Sevilla on the line from Los Rosales to Mérida.

@SergioCanovasS 2 жыл бұрын

In my experience, most MD trains are delayed due to the one-way railroad tracks, so they often stop at a station longer than necessary just because there is a train coming from the other side.... In addition, Renfe doesn't care much about MD services, as they are totally focused on AVE services, which is shameful, as several small towns are seeing how Renfe is trying to stop offering some of the MD lines those towns depend on (for example, the Madrid-Cuenca-Valencia which was abandoned just a month ago after more than a year of mistreatment by Renfe).

Great video as always, Dylan! From what I understand, rail lines to and from Extremadura to other parts of Spain have always gotten the short end of the stick, which can lead to those extremely long travel times in that part of the country, so much so that they actually found that riding atop a donkey can go faster than the train itself. Not to mention these DMUs are prone to breakdowns and even a few fires since their introduction. All adding to the fact that the AVE line to Extremadura keeps getting delayed, Extremadurans have demanded the government invest more on it's conventional lines, "Un tren como Dios manda" (a train as God intended) as they say. Unfortunately that seems to be the case in the rest of Spain as well.

@mlc1503 2 жыл бұрын

Spaniard here. What you say here is completely true. Extremadura and the western part of Spain has always had bad connections by rail. Not only trains are very prone to fail while on journey, but when they actually do work, journey's can be up to 5h30' in the case of Cáceres-Madrid, which are 350km or so apart. It mostly comes down from the age of the rails being used, even some of them date back to the late 19th century! And because of it, trains have to go painfully slow. Now, it's not only Extremadura who suffers from it, every autonomous region suffers from it in som way or another. I'm from Valencia, the eastern part of Spain, and from 2011 we have had an AVE connection to Madrid. The AVE has diminished so much the use of the old conventional rail line, that since Jan 2021 the line has been closed because "it's not worth keeping" and because "it's not profitable". Which is a contradiction as these services are not profit seeking, but public obligation services. To sum up, its the government and Renfe who are to blame about the years of neglect conventional rail has been suffering on a national scale. So yeah, we need Un Tren Como Dios Manda

Great stuff!! I'm very familiar with the s-599 as it's widely used in the North-West aswell as many people use them for commuting. Here they operate on the REGIONAL branch between A Coruña and Vigo. On the s-599 takes there or thereabouts 2h and 10 min compared with the hour and a half the High-Speed MD service takes. It costs 6,30€ for a 37min trip between A Coruña and Santiago de Compostela on the same corridor on the s-599. The MD tickets cost 7,30€ for 28mins.

I’ve experienced a couple things differently in my trip in the s599 (Huesca-Zaragoza, 1 hour approx), the main difference was that seats were reserved, and the other difference is that the toilet was broken and it interfered with the AC, so there was no AC in July, with 40°C outside. Apart from that, I believe it’s a really nice regional product, specially if it wasn’t used for the 10h trips like these, but shorter more regional trains instead. Hopefully Renfe someday invests in conventional rail.

Your tray table with cup holder was nice. The price was a bit bad. Is this a well-travelled route or barely used? Maybe that accounts for the high price ticket. The train did seem a bit empty. Considering the cost, you'd think they could at least give you a snack & a drink. It would probably cost more in the States. Looking forward to Friday. Stay safe.

£28 for a 4 hour journey sounds pretty good to me compared to what we pay in the UK.

Lamentablemente en España es así, el tren sea cual fuere hasta este que es la línea más básica de calidad es caro. Por eso recomiendo para viajes baratos It en autobus

Great scenery. Still cheaper than the UK which is, quite frankly, a rip off. It just isn't value for money.

Ese tren era un s-598, no un s-599. That train was an s-598, not an s-599.

No. De frente se parecen pero no. El 599 lleva puertas de una hoja y el coche central con acceso PMR. El 598 lleva puertas de doble hoja, y cómo mucho alguna unidad lleva elevador para PMR.
