Enjoyed this video. I rode this train on Sat Mar 2, 2024. Seville station was crowded: I bought the ticket same day 16.65 euro. I wish that I had taken time to enjoy the Seville station like you highlighted. The ride was pretty uneventful, but it got me to Cadiz safely. Thanks!

Thank you! Yes, it is a lovely space to be in.

Hey! A quick note: The building of the Jerez station was built in 1928-1930 (The date isnt well known) The date that you put was the inauguration of the train stop. There was a provisinal building for more that 50 years

I have to say well done on the pronunciations! The metal thingy over the tray table is a cup holder (or atleast thats what i use it for)

Very good! Was at Inverness early this week to take the Highland Chieftain--and with time to spare. I thought how would I make a video here. So many decisions to make . I wouldn't know where to start. Just increases my admiration for what you do.

Thank you for saying that. Raises the mood to get a bit of praise. How was the Highland Chieftain?

I have done this journey and wrongly got off at the Cadiz stadium station. Had to then get a bus into town. Cadiz is an interesting place served by tourist cruises. The old railway station is next door to the modern station which is really quiet for such a big city.

Yes I know what you mean about the old and new stations. I spend a bit longer looking at them in the video about the Cádiz tram-trains. I'd happily go back to Cádiz. I loved the old town, and the ride around the bay was lovely. Thanks for watching 👍

@@JohnnyHooverTravels It is intended as a cup holder, the standard cup you would get from the train catering or cafeteria would fit, and it looks very simila to that of the alstom AVE trains.

when you got the tray down that thing what you dont know what it is ---is a cup holder easy to work out

It’s sad that you come just the few weeks a year that there are bad climate in Andalucía, it’s just not the same, all in here it’s made for sunny weather, so if it’s cloudy it’s feel so sad

I think the answer is "that depends". I booked my journeys about two weeks in advance and I was pleased I did because I was travelling during a period of national holidays and the trains were fairly busy. I just tried to book tickets on the Renfe app for this journey tonight (Sunday) and both possible trains were showing fully booked.
