Rail line closed between Santiago and Ourense - services to Madrid disrupted

[Bradypus]

The high speed rail link between Santiago and Ourense is closing until Tuesday 29 August to allow new signalling equipment to be installed. This will affect services between Santiago, Vigo, Ferrol and Madrid. Some trains are being rerouted while a replacement bus service will be used for others on the closed section. This will have significant effect on the timetables.

Hi! This has been going on for awhile. I bought my train ticket from Madrid to Sarria back in June and the train stopped at Ourense. At that point, we were able to get on a bus from there to Sarria. I am concerned how the train is operating from Santiago to Madrid as I do have a reservation on Thursday night.
