Travelers seeking to reach Extremadura on the afternoon of September 1 by train from a link in Alcázar de San Juan have encountered a further delay. One more in a black summer of breakdowns and problems that affect the Extremadura railway. In this case, those affected are those who wanted to make a transfer to take the 18330 medium-distance convoy to Badajoz.
One of the possible routes to come by train from Barcelona to Badajoz is to take a Talgo in Barcelona. Then, in Alcázar de San Juan (Ciudad Real) the aforementioned transfer is made.
But the people who come to the capital of La Paz this Friday on this means of transportation will be almost an hour late. On this occasion, the delay was not caused by a breakdown in the convoy, as has been the case throughout this summer. But due to a problem in the Silla (Valencia) facilities, where the Talgo from Catalonia passes.
The train that was in the Alcazar ready to leave for Extremadura, had to wait for the Talgo, and this was the reason for the delay.
This inconvenience is one of the six breakdowns that have produced more than ten delays during the month of August. After numerous breakdowns, Renfe announced this week that they are going to install a workshop for the trains in Badajoz and thus facilitate the repair of machinery that is in poor condition.
