I just looked on Google Maps, and it looks like the train is hourly at 6 minutes before the hour on Saturdays. I knew that it was on Sundays, because that's the day that I made this trip. I was lucky that the train arrived just a couple of minutes after I got to the platform. I couldn't find any way to buy a ticket, and neither could the other pilgrims that got on at the same time.

Thank you very much for the info. On with side of the platform does the train leave. The site were you arrive on the station or the side of mogro?

Sorry, I don't remember exactly, but I think that it was on the other side from the station entrance.

I recall a single track with one platform. But that was 30 years ago. They may have expanded

I’m really into researching my travels; but I can’t compete with that for being prepared.

I’d expect it to be fairly obvious when you get there. It’s not Grand Central.

I just today , September 8 , took the train. It appeared to be hourly. I caught the 09:54. The correct track is the south near the Albergue. The advice from other pilgrims was that it’s free. But I’d have a euro in my pocket just in case. Ride lasts a minute or two.
