Don Pepin and Merca-Ham Don Pepin, Minister of Public Works, came out with one of the good: maintenance of the railway network cost us 6 million euros a day. Not bad. The bad thing is that it was to return to past times, when in 1984/85 the government of Felipe Gonzalez decided to close a large percentage of rail lines. On that occasion, as always, was loaded against the lines of fewer users, and this, as an example was cited to the Burgos-Madrid. Evidently seeking to close other as Soria Madrid (the only left for a province where there were three lines) or similar. That is, as in the case of financial crisis, the duck is paid by the poorest, which fall into the spiral of not having to have no infrastructure investment.
To return to the example, what is not said is that in Madrid sense there are three trains a day, at 8:43, 11:32, 15:02 and three more between 19:20 and 19: 55. It takes between 2h30 (one) and 4.30 (ie, in the past get to Madrid just after the first 22h and at 13h). For a line used should serve, and schedules (not to mention price) of example are little more than unpresentable, because you can not go to anything in the morning or arrive in the dark. Well.
What does it say here the phenomenon is that it involves the maintenance of the AVE lines in those 6 million a day, because what if it is of first hand is that RENFE infrastructure spending on conventional lines is asymptotic to zero.
