AVE high speed train service that will run between Malaga and Madrid and Barcelona. At the beginning of this year the Minister for Development, Magdalena álvarez, announced that the Malaga high speed line would have “the best trains”. Now we can be more precise: the route between Malaga and Madrid will be covered by the S-102 model built by Talgo-Bombardier, more commonly known as “Patos” (Ducks); passengers travelling between the Costa del Sol and Barcelona, on the other hand, will be on the S-103 trains built by Siemens, otherwise known as the “Velaro”.
As from December 23rd the Talgo S-102, capable of reaching speeds of 330 kilometres per hour, will cover the eleven journeys each way between Malaga and Madrid. The journey time will be around two and a half hours and tickets will cost around 70 euros per journey (ten more than the current price). The exact journey time and price will be officially announced at the end of this month.
