Trains from Madrid to Lisbon

Well at least you now have the train times and know they are running!

Thank you for your response and the related link. I called the Portuguese train system but was told tickets can only be purchased in Madrid. We'll keep trying.

I am afraid nothing ever surprises me with the Spanish railway system as far as ticket sales are concerned! You are quite right in that you cannot obtain tickets via their website. So I went to the Portuguese site and they have timetables, etc, available and contact details. You can find all this at http://www.cp.pt/cp/displayPage.do?vgnextoid=a4f6f9e12a584010VgnVCM1000007b01a8c0RCRD

Ladies and Gentlemen:



You have been very helpful to us regarding my family's arrival at Madrid Airport. We will land on December 22 from Atlanta. May I ask you a question?



We have been trying for 6 weeks to purchase rail tickets from Madrid to Lisbon (the Lusitania) on Dec 27 for a family of 4. We have been told every week that the Spanish railway system has not yet released the train schedules and therefore we can not purchase tickets. It seems very strange to us that on Dec 15 the railway schedule has not been published for Dec 27. Can this be true? Is there some other way for us to purchase Madrid to Lisbon train tickets? Do you recommend we try to buy plane tickets instead? Thank you.



Best regards,
