high-speed <i>railway lines</i> currently in operation (June 2024).</figcaption></figure> <p>High-speed railways in <a href="/wiki/Spain" title="Spain">Spain</a> have been in operation since 1992 when the first line was opened connecting the cities of <a href="/wiki/Madrid" title="Madrid">Madrid</a>, <a href="/wiki/C%C3%B3rdoba,_Andalusia" class="mw-redirect" title="Córdoba, Andalusia">Córdoba</a> and <a href="/wiki/Seville" title="Seville">Seville</a>. Unlike the rest of the <a href="/wiki/Iberian_gauge" class="mw-redirect" title="Iberian gauge">Iberian broad gauge</a> network, the Spanish High-speed network mainly uses <a href="/wiki/Standard_gauge" class="mw-redirect" title="Standard gauge">standard gauge</a>. This permits direct connections to outside Spain through the link to the French network at the <a href="/wiki/Perthus_Tunnel" title="Perthus Tunnel">Perthus Tunnel</a>. High-speed trains run on a network of high-speed rail track owned and managed by <a href="/wiki/Adif" class="mw-redirect" title="Adif">ADIF</a> (<i>Administrador de Infraestructuras Ferroviarias</i>), where the dominant service is <a href="/wiki/AVE" title="AVE">AVE</a> while other high speed services such as <a href="/wiki/Avant_(train)" title="Avant (train)">Avant</a>, <a href="/wiki/Alvia" title="Alvia">Alvia</a>, <a href="/wiki/Avlo" title="Avlo">Avlo</a>, <a href="/wiki/Euromed_(train)" title="Euromed (train)">Euromed</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ouigo_Espa%C3%B1a" title="Ouigo España">Ouigo España</a> and <a href="/wiki/Iryo" title="Iryo">Iryo</a>, as well as mid-speed (<a href="/wiki/Altaria_(Renfe_Operadora_service)" title="Altaria (Renfe Operadora service)">Altaria</a>) services also operate. </p><p>AVE trains are operated by <a href="/wiki/Renfe" title="Renfe">Renfe</a>, the national passenger high-speed rail operator in Spain, but private companies such as Ouigo España and Iryo compete on the Madrid–Barcelona and other routes in accordance with the <a href="/wiki/EU_Directive_91/440" class="mw-redirect" title="EU Directive 91/440">European Union legislation</a>. French <a href="/wiki/TGV" title="TGV">TGV</a> services run from the border to Barcelona under the <a href="/wiki/TGV_inOui" title="TGV inOui">TGV inOui</a> brand. Some TGV-derived trains used to run on the broad-gauge network at slower speeds, branded by Renfe as Euromed, until new dual-gauge rolling stock was commissioned for these services. Alvia trains are also operated by Renfe and have the ability to use both Iberian gauge and standard gauge lines offering high-speed services across the whole Spanish network. </p><p>As of September 2024<sup class="plainlinks noexcerpt noprint asof-tag update" style="display:none;"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=High-speed_rail_in_Spain&action=edit">[update]</a></sup>, the Spanish high-speed rail network is the longest HSR network in Europe with 3,973 km (2,469 mi)<sup id="cite_ref-ADIF_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ADIF-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the <a href="/wiki/List_of_high-speed_railway_lines" title="List of high-speed railway lines">second longest in the world</a>, after China's. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=High-speed_rail_in_Spain&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1251242444">.mw-parser-output .ambox{border:1px solid #a2a9b1;border-left:10px solid #36c;background-color:#fbfbfb;box-sizing:border-box}.mw-parser-output .ambox+link+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+link+style+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+link+link+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+.mw-empty-elt+link+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+.mw-empty-elt+link+style+.ambox,.mw-parser-output .ambox+.mw-empty-elt+link+link+.ambox{margin-top:-1px}html body.mediawiki .mw-parser-output .ambox.mbox-small-left{margin:4px 1em 4px 0;overflow:hidden;width:238px;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:88%;line-height:1.25em}.mw-parser-output .ambox-speedy{border-left:10px solid #b32424;background-color:#fee7e6}.mw-parser-output .ambox-delete{border-left:10px solid #b32424}.mw-parser-output .ambox-content{border-left:10px solid #f28500}.mw-parser-output .ambox-style{border-left:10px solid #fc3}.mw-parser-output .ambox-move{border-left:10px solid #9932cc}.mw-parser-output .ambox-protection{border-left:10px solid #a2a9b1}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-text{border:none;padding:0.25em 0.5em;width:100%}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-image{border:none;padding:2px 0 2px 0.5em;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-imageright{border:none;padding:2px 0.5em 2px 0;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-empty-cell{border:none;padding:0;width:1px}.mw-parser-output .ambox .mbox-image-div{width:52px}@media(min-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .ambox{margin:0 10%}}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .ambox{display:none!important}}</style><table class="box-Split plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-move" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><span typeof="mw:File"><span><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/Split-arrows.svg/50px-Split-arrows.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="17" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/Split-arrows.svg/75px-Split-arrows.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/Split-arrows.svg/100px-Split-arrows.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="60" data-file-height="20" /></span></span></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">It has been suggested that this article be <b><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Splitting" title="Wikipedia:Splitting">split</a></b> into a new article titled <i><a href="/wiki/History_of_rail_transport_in_Spain" title="History of rail transport in Spain">History of rail transport in Spain</a></i>.

After considering various options it was decided that a standard-gauge line, allowing for Spain's first high-speed rail link, would be built. The project was named NAFA (<i>Nuevo Acceso Ferroviario a Andalucía</i>, New Rail Link to Andalusia) and was meant to help revitalise the stagnant southern Spanish economy. The line was inaugurated on 14 April 1992 to coincide with <a href="/wiki/Seville_Expo_%2792" title="Seville Expo '92">Expo 92</a> being held in Seville.

Seville was the artistic, cultural, and financial capital of southern Spain and the fourth largest city in Spain, after Madrid, <a href="/wiki/Barcelona" title="Barcelona">Barcelona</a> and <a href="/wiki/Valencia" title="Valencia">Valencia</a>, with a population of over 700,000 and a metropolitan area of almost 1.5 million people.

On 23 April that year, an AVE trainset set a new top speed of 356.8 km/h (221.7 mph) on a test run.

The maximum permitted speed is 270 km/h between Atocha station and Brazatortas, save for the approaches to the intermediate stations (Atocha, Ciudad Real and Puertollano). Beyond Brazatortas, the line is only authorised for 250 km/h operation, which drops to 215 km/h in the Sierra Morena mountains and 90 km/h around Córdoba station.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It is more likely that time savings occurred as a result of there being fewer intermediate stops. </p><p>Although in 1999 Renfe began a mixed-service <i>Talgo 200 Madrid–Algeciras</i> route, this was, along with the other mixed services, transferred to <i>Grandes Líneas Renfe</i> (Renfe's Spanish gauge long-distance brand) following changes to plans for high-speed rail in Spain. </p><p>In November 2003 a new <i>AVE Lanzadera</i> medium distance service began between Seville and Córdoba using new class 104 trains,<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> reducing journey times between the two cities to 40 minutes.
