Kicking off our Spain series with the high-speed rail, the 'AVE'. We hop on board Spain's fastest train, the Serie 103, journeying from Barcelona to the capital, Madrid. It was truly a thrill to instantly get on one of the vehicles I've been most eager to experience in Spain.
Boarding the AVE and other Spanish high-speed trains comes with a slightly different procedure compared to other countries. There are baggage checks, and passengers must present their pre-booked tickets at a dedicated counter, leading them to a waiting area similar to airport boarding.
The Serie 103 we're traveling on is Spain's version of the high-speed train, ICE3, that operates in Germany. While their general exteriors are identical, a closer look reveals differences in window placements and door positions. Furthermore, stepping inside, you enter a world completely different from the German trains. The ambiance, seat layouts, and even the placement of various amenities exhibit a uniquely Spanish design. The rotating seats facing the direction of travel remind me of Japan's Shinkansen and express trains.
Throughout our series, we will delve deep into the intricate aspects of Spain's AVE high-speed railway. This video serves as an introduction, providing an overview of the types of trains in operation, their unique interior features, and the reasons behind such design choices. We'll also rigorously discuss its differences from Germany's ICE3. Behind these differences lies the challenges posed by Spain's landscape and the rail system's inherent weaknesses, and the innovative solutions to overcome the harsh environmental conditions.
Join us in exploring the allure of Spanish trains, uncovering hidden tales, and immersing in the scenic beauty along the way.
