Overview

• Renfe canceled up to 27 trains on Monday after Adif closed several stretches of the corridor in Tarragona and Castellón.
• Inspections found flooded track and washed-out ballast between Ulldecona and L’Aldea, with repair trains deployed including nine ballast hoppers, a profiladora and a bateadora.
• A lightning strike in Benicarló damaged signalling and safety systems, and Adif is replacing electronic cards, cabling and connections.
• Rodalies R16 remains suspended between Tortosa and Ulldecona, and Renfe has set up road replacement between Tortosa and Vinaròs to link with services toward Valencia.
• Adif has paused gauge-change works between Benicarló and Alcalà de Xivert to prioritize recovery, and says the timeline depends on weather and full-line inspections.
