I think the poster is looking for where to find the Camino path in Sarria, which is where he was starting from.
While I hate to read too much into your comment, it seems a bit snarky, mostly because it was completely non-responsive. I hope that wasn't the case and you were just trying to be overly helpful (while not answering the questions that were asked in the post).
 
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
From the Bus Station walk south on Rua Matias Lopez (LU 546)
about 6 blocks. Take a slight right onto Rua Benigno Quiroga.
Then after two short blocks take a sharp right and you will see
the large stair case which is a major landmark on the Camino
in Sarria. After you reach the top, I you take a slight left and
eventually you reach the Sarria letters.

From the train station take Rua Calvo Sotelo Southeast
for about 5 block and you will reach the Rua Matias
Lopez and turn right. Go about two blocks on that
street and take a slight right onto Rua Benigno Quiroga.

From the train station it might be easier just to walk to
the west and connect with the Camino. I just gave you
these directions because I believe the two major landmarks
on the Camino in Sarria are the Stairs (Escalinata)
and the Sarria Letters. Plus, many albergues are near the Stairs.
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
