Help. I'm trying to map out the route from Barajas airport to Madrid Puerta de Atocha train station. According to GOOGLE Maps I take the pink line, line 8, to Nuevos Ministerios then take the green line to the train station except there is no green line from the Ministerios station and the logo is not for the metro or bus. It's a red circle with a white backwards C in it. Tram, Trolley, cable car ? Buen Camino

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
The logo you are asking about is for the RENFE Cercanias line. RENFE is the country's rail system, Cercanias is the line that basically does "suburbian transport" of large metropolitan centers such as Madrid, Bilbao, as well as the lines im Asturias for example.
 
Thank you every one for your help. Pink line to Ministerios then the Green RENFE commuter line to the Atocha train station. :) Muy Bien Camino
