The Madrid-Barcelona high-speed rail line is a 621 km (386 mi) inaugurated on February 20, 2008. It's one of the world's fastest long-distance trains in commercial operation, connecting the cities of Madrid and Barcelona.
17 trains run now every day between the hours of 6am-9pm, covering the distance between the two cities in just 2 hours 38 minutes, and those stopping at all stations 3 hours. Before the high speed line was built, the journey between the two cities took almost six hours and when the high speed line went only as far as Tarragona 3 hours 45 minutes, with the Alvia service (120 series train), which continued on the conventional line to Barcelona, after a change of rail gauge.
