While half of Spain basks in the summer sun, the other half is dealing with unseasonable hail storms and downpours. One such rainstorm which affected the provinces of Toledo and Ciudad Real on Monday night caused Renfe to cancel four trains on the Malaga-Madrid service.
One of them was the Cordoba-Malaga bound AVE 2212 train from Madrid which should have left at 9.30 p.m., and the other three, one due in Malaga at 11.30 p.m., and two which were scheduled to leave María Zambrano station at 8 p.m. and 9 p.m., were cancelled due to the lines between Yeles and La Sagra (Toledo) being flooded.
Renfe expects all services to be resumed this afternoon.
