[QUOTE="Tia Valeria, post: 67403, member: 6537"] Hi Greg. The FEVE is the narrow guage railway that runs across northern Spain. Railcars with toilet and 2 carriages. It takes 4 hours to get from Santander to Oviedo and there are 2 a day.You can search their website at [url]http://www.feve.es/es/[/url] and it works well. From Oviedo there are trains to Leon on the RENFE line. (Oviedo station is a bit confusing if you are not careful with RENFE one side of the stairs and FEVE the other.) ALSA is the equivelent of National Express and runs from Santander to all parts of Spain. Their website [url=http://www.alsa.es/portal/site/Alsa/menuitem.fbc50f3625b7aa254b774b77421000e5/?vgnextoid=26e89f2b9a909110VgnVCM1000002401005eRCRD&searchType=schedules]ALSA[/url] works OK if you know the nearest large town to your destination, and then gives intermittent stops. The train and bus stations in Santander are next to one another (FEVE, RENFE, ALSA and other buses. We found that the ALSA advice desk will give you a print out of times,costs etc (at least they did in Oviedo). In Oviedo again the bus and train stations are near enough next door to one another. I think there are buses direct from Santander to Leon but some appear to go through Oviedo anyway. Others will know this better than we do. Part of your decision on which way is best might depend on your timescale and the bus or train times etc, aso whether you want to see the motorway (bus) or the scenic route (train). The RENFE trains may go direct to Leon, bit we don't know, our comments are based on meeting a pilgrim last year doing the FEVE/RENFE via Oviedo option when we were heading for the Camino Primitivo. Hope you enjoy your planning and Buen Camino when it comes. [/QUOTE]
