High Speed Rail in Spain - a statement from a foreign expert
The interchange conditions for Sevilla could be optimized, if a platform with an European
standard track at the one side (track 4) and a track with Iberian gauge at the other side (track
5) could be realized. This idea is shown in figure 7. This sketch was designed before seeing
Sevilla station in practice. The platform between track 6 (1435 mm gauge) and track 7 (1668
mm gauge is the most important platform in Sevilla station.
Córdoba
The interchange situation in Córdoba is very convenient for passenger change. It is assumed
that the third train can run in the track of the first train. A 4 minutes space between these two
trains contains already 1 minute recovery time.
