I know, or thought I knew, there was a Renfe train from SDC to Madrid, but neither the Renfe app, nor the website will show any trains. Strangely enough, yesterday both the website & app did. Can anyone suggest the best way to get to Madrid? I’m thinking flying out of SDC at present.
Thanks for any info.
Warmly,

And there is also a direct...There is a good train from SdeC to Madrid. A couple of times a day. I took it back in October. Good ride. There is one transfer shortly after SdeC, but you just step off one and onto another...same platform. Check again.
We trained from SdC to MAD in March and I just double checked with the RENFE app and several departure times are listed currently. Any chance you set up Madrid to something other than Todas or Chamartin?
How far in advance are you looking? The website only shows train schedules out to 60 or 90 days in advance.

Walk down to the train station in SdC and buy your tic from the person at the windowWe trained from SdC to MAD in March and I just double checked with the RENFE app and several departure times are listed currently. Any chance you set up Madrid to something other than Todas or Chamartin?
A couple of years ago I tried to book a train ticket in August about 5 days before I planned to travel, and all the Santiago - Madrid trains were sold out, so you may want to reconsider leaving it to the last minute. Also you can get a better price by booking ahead. I prefer using the Renfe app over the website.No, but I too got several departures, but this seems to be at the apps whim. So, at any rate, I can purchse the tickets at the Renfe station in SDC. Thanks!
And should you be over 60 don't forget to buy your Spanish senior rail card first, valid for one year , cost 6€.
It's the Tarjeta DoradaHow would you say Senior Rail Card in Spanish? You ask for it at the window, or do you have to buy it ahead?
