The Rodalies train service remains suspended across Catalonia on Thursday morning, January 22, 2026, with Renfe attributing the situation to "operational causes."

Sources from the operator Renfe confirmed that Rodalies trains continue to be suspended early on Thursday morning, recommending users utilize alternative transport. This situation occurs despite the Government announcing a "progressive" resumption of service the previous night, though warning it would be a "difficult day."

"The drivers would not resume their work without written guarantees from Adif regarding the safety measures adopted to increase security."

The stance of the Semaf union highlights the tension between workers and the infrastructure administrator, Adif, regarding safety conditions. Meanwhile, at the stations, informants tell users about the lack of trains, and in some cases, access points to the platforms are closed.
