BarcelonaRenfe and Adif, in coordination with the Catalan government, announced on Sunday the partial restoration of commuter rail service, but with some sections offering alternative bus service. In total, there were nine sections, which the Ministry of Transport detailed individually, correcting some of the spellings. "Montcada Bifurcación - Vic" is the first section on the list, but "Santo Sadurní - Martorell" and "Reus - Orilla Roja" are also included. These are actually "Moncada Bifurcación," "San Sadurní de Anoia - Martorell," and "Reus - Ribarroja." The accent mark for Puigcerdà is also incorrect, spelled with a closed accent.

However, the Ministry correctly spells Maçanet (with a ç) and Picamoixons. The ministry has ended up deleting the tweet where they had published the image of this part of the press release showing the commuter rail sections where an alternative bus service had been established.

This error adds to the new chaos this morning on the commuter rail network, where a new technical issue forced the service to be stopped twice. In less than an hour, trains stopped twice due to Two technical incidents at the Adif control centerAll this happened before eight in the morning and has caused another chaotic morning on the commuter rail network, adding to the crisis the service has been suffering for a week, following the derailment of a train in Gelida that caused the death of one of the train drivers who were traveling.
