The TRAIN system
in Spain works very well...
Although the
trains are not very fast, they
are comfortable and cheap and probably one of the
best ways
to travel. Even though it costs more
than a bus, it gives you the opportunity to escape
the
torture
of a bus trip by just spending 20 to 40 € more!
Barcelona
has two main stations which serve different destinations.
When in doubt, go to Estació Barcelona-Sants;
not
all trains leaving Barcelona-Sants necessarily pass
through Estació França.
Most trains also make stops on the Barcelona metro
line. For general information about trains and train
stations in Barcelona,
call
RENFE, Spain's main train company (902 24 02 02).

exact prices and schedules see www.renfe.es. For
long trips (8 hours or more) consider taking the Trenhotel where
you can get a sleeping car for slightly more money.
