How to get from Santander to Carrion de los Condes in one day

[Gerardonderweg]

I have planned to take up the Camino Frances in may 2014 from Carrion de los Condesbecause of available holidays. I have a confirmed flight to Santander arriving approx. 09.00 hrs at Santander Airport.
I found out that ALSA bus going south to Osorno is leaving at 08.30 PM (not usefull for me) or 17.00.
ALSA connection in Osorno is not available before 11.30 A.M. the next day.
Does anybody know whether there exists another bus company that has a service between Osorno and Carrion de los Condes? Or is there a train connection between Santander city and Osorno?
I could not find it on RENFE / FEVE site.
Thanks in advance

The airport at Santander is out of town. The station is in the centre, not far from the ferry port so you will need time to get from the airport to the station, including passport control etc. Check the distance on Google maps, it might be OK, but the timing would be tight.
Buen Camino
