Which operators run Trains services in Spain?
14 operators run Trains services on routes we sell in Spain: Comboios de Portugal, Eusko Trenbideak - Ferrocarriles Vascos, Euskotren, full version, Intercity. Each is a real carrier from the published operator catalog, and each has its own fares and conditions. The operator table on this page compares them on speed, flexibility and what is on board.
What is the longest Trains route in Spain?
The longest Trains route we sell touching Spain runs from Barcelona to Dortmund, 1,196 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 351 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.
Where these numbers come from
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
