Renfe AVE

Renfe-Operadora is Spain's national state-owned railway company, responsible for operating passenger and freight services across the country. The brand 'Renfe' is synonymous with Spain's rail transport services, including the high-speed AVE trains. The company was established on January 1, 2005, following the division of the former Spanish National Railway Network (RENFE) into two entities: Renfe-Operadora, which took over the railway services, and ADIF, which inherited the infrastructure. Renfe-Operadora is fully owned by the Government of Spain, reflecting the country's commitment to maintaining control over its national transportation services. The brand 'Renfe' is widely recognized in Spain and internationally, representing the country's extensive and modern rail network.
