Train services on the RL4 line of Rodalies have been suspended this Saturday, March 7th, between Manresa, Calaf, and Cervera following two separate landslides on the tracks.

Heavy rainfall from the previous day caused earth and debris to block the railway. According to Adif and Renfe, the first incident was reported around 10:00 AM between Manresa and Calaf, followed shortly by another landslide between Calaf and Cervera.
Passengers on a train traveling from Lleida to Manresa had to be evacuated at Calaf station to continue their journey by bus. No injuries were reported. Maintenance crews are currently working to clear the tracks, although there is no estimated time for the service to resume.
