The route
What the journey actually looks like
Direct or connecting, how far the route really runs, and what happens when a connection is missed.
- How far it really runs
- The route covers 434 km against 421 km in a straight line, a detour of 3 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
- First and last departure
- The first service of the day leaves Madrid at 06:18 and the last at 20:46, across 56 departures. The return direction keeps its own timetable, so the times back are not these times reversed.

Where these numbers come from
Observed service A carrier record shows this named operator serving this named pair, and we carry that through unchanged.
