Trenhotel Sarria to Madrid

[Tootingpilgrim]

Does anyone know if the Trenhotel from Sarria to Madrid is running this summer 2014? I know it was under threat but then got a reprieve. It doesn't appear in the Renfe timetable after early February.

If it's not running I plan to go to Lugo and hire a car. Can anyone recommend a car hire company in Lugo for a one way? One open on a Sunday would be best.

It is still on the Renfe website. It doesn't run on Sundays.

Nope. The night train is on the renfe website till early feb but not after that. And until then it leaves at around 23.00 each night apart from Saturdays. Anyone have any more info on this?

I sent an enquiry via the Renfe website. This is a Google translation of their reply:

Normally the train information is available for sale 62 days in advance , 90 days for some AVE trains and Long Distance .However, there are times when due to adjustments in the service, this information is not available for the date in the first place , so the page reports that no trains available . This does not mean that there will be no trains but not yet know for certain times or the number of seats that are going to have . We do not know when it will go on sale , so , to check availability in the path of interest , you should check periodically on our www.renfe.com " Tickets" or phone Comprehensive Information traveler 902,320,320 .
