Lleida's commuter rail network has experienced consecutive days of disruptions, impacting lines R13, R14, and RL4. A catenary issue near Juneda caused a one-and-a-half-hour service suspension, while another power supply problem affected the line between Calaf and Manresa.

A problem with the catenary near the Juneda station caused a one-and-a-half-hour closure of the R13 and R14 Regional lines between Lleida and Les Borges Blanques yesterday. According to Renfe sources, the incident occurred between 2:00 PM and 3:30 PM and affected one train. Before service was restored, an alternative road transport service was arranged to ensure the mobility of affected passengers.
The incident, as reported by Adif, took place during scheduled maintenance work at the Juneda station, located in the les Garrigues region.
Additionally, another incident occurred yesterday on the RL4 line, which connects Lleida and Manresa. Adif stated that the issue was with the electrical supply to the catenary between the Calaf and Manresa stations.
These incidents follow disruptions on the RL3 (Lleida-Cervera) and RL4 lines last Wednesday, when service was halted for seven hours due to a signaling issue between Lleida and Cervera.
