    Incredibly based.

    It helps that Spain has world-class trains and are continuously investing in expanding the network.

    I’m so jealous. I wish the complete shitstain right-wingers that cancelled train investment in my country were fired. (out of a cannon into the sun)

      As Spaniard I wouldn’t go that far… but yeah they are good. But not all of them 😅 specially the shorter routes. Apart from some maintenance issues, It doesn’t help that from time to time a line is down because they have stolen copper wires…

        One tragic fact of life is that it doesn’t really take that much to become world-class as far as trains go. The HSR network alone basically places you on the podium.

          Depends on the age of your tracks, if you have old Victorian bridges etc or aging signal systems it can be very hard indeed.
