      @@jalejandromartin7642 Va a ser que no. Cercanías no para de tener retrasos, algunas estaciones tienen ascensores sin arreglar, lo cual perjudica a usuarios con movilidad reducida.
      Además, la clase 445 Alsthom tiene una gran capacidad de usuarios pero sigue siendo un problema para las mismas personas.

    🤣 you confused planta (floor) with vía (platform) but in this station you had the directions in two languages: Spanish and English (in smaller letters).
    In Barcelona you are going to have it in three: Spanish, Catalan and English.
    And here we treat high speed trains like planes: you have your own seat and you pass a light "security check" to enter the high speed railway.
    I laughed when you said "in central Europe is always on time" because I took an intercity train (medium speed) that was delayed 20 minuts in Germany.
    By the way, you didn't had the hotel in Barcelona, you stayed in another county nearly 30 km away from the city.

    David, I must say I was rooting for you the whole time, but you had me nervous there. I know Atocha in Madrid, and I was screaming, PLANTA not plataforma! I really thought you were going to miss the train. By the way, train service in Spain is VERY prompt normally. RENFE gives you 50% of your ticket cost back if there are a certain amount of minutes late (I forget the number). Not sure if the new lower-cost companies like Iryo (an Italian company) or Ouigo (a French company) do that or not. Maybe it would be helpful to do a little more research ahead of time. You were far outside of Barcelona. By the way, I'm buds with Elliot (Adventure Elliot), who I think you know.
