International night train from Madrid Chamartín to Lisboa Santa Apolónia about to depart towards Portugal. The first car goes until the next station which is Ávila, doing domestic service, due to savings reasons. The car will be detached from the train in Medina del Campo, while the locomotive is changed by a diesel one. This trains does stop at Ávila, Medina del Campo, Salamanca, Ciudad Rodrigo, Fuentes d´Oñoro (spanish border), Vilar Formoso (Portuguese border), Guarda, Mangualde, Coimbra-B, Pombal, Entroncamento and Lisboa Oriente This is a real nice night trip through the spanish plains, and portuguese montains, until reach the portuguese Lisboa Porto main line. Recommended, and you can easily get a ticket from 25 euros in Renfe.es.
