The trainsets are designed for high-speed services on [[Iberian gauge]] ({{RailGauge|1668mm}}) and high-speed ({{RailGauge|1435mm}}) lines; they can change gauge at low speed without stopping using Talgo's RD [[variable gauge]] system.<ref>[http://conference.europoint.eu/railtechrussia2007/session2/oriol.pdf “Talgo RD” Variable Gauge System: A solution to eliminate barriers in the transport of goods and passengers between East and West] Rail Tech Russis, inter-nation conference, June 2007, ''conference.europoint.eu''</ref> The carriages are constructed from aluminium and incorporate the ''Talgo Pendular ''passive pendulum tilting system,<ref name="tp">[http://www.talgoamerica.com/pdf/Talgo-Coaches-Brochure-Foldout.pdf The Talgo Pendular Coaches] ''www.talgoamerica.com''</ref> are sealed against pressure differences for tunnel travel,<ref name="td"/> and have underframe air conditioning, individual audio systems and video displays, rotating and reclining seats and power outlets.<ref name="tap"/>

The Renfe Class 130 or S-130[4] (Spanish: Serie 130 de Renfe, manufacturer's designation Talgo 250) is a high-speed dual-gauge, dual-voltage trainset consisting of 11 Talgo VII tilting coaches and two power cars, used on Alvia and Euromed services.[5][6][7] The class have been nicknamed patitos (ducklings), due to the shape of the train nose.[8]

Background and design

[edit]

The trainsets are designed for high-speed services on Iberian gauge (1,668 mm (5 ft 5+2132 in)) and high-speed (1,435 mm (4 ft 8+12 in)) lines; they can change gauge at low speed without stopping using Talgo's RD variable gauge system.[9] The carriages are constructed from aluminium and incorporate the Talgo Pendular passive pendulum tilting system,[10] are sealed against pressure differences for tunnel travel,[1] and have underframe air conditioning, individual audio systems and video displays, rotating and reclining seats and power outlets.[3]

Capacity in standard class is 36 seated, in first class 26 seats, end coaches have lower capacity, one coach is typically used for restaurant/sales services.[1]

The power cars use AC traction motors controlled by IGBT inverters which include integrated auxiliary inverters. Signalling systems can include ETCS Level 2, LZB, ASFA and Ebicab900TBS.[11]

Operations and services

[edit]

As of January 2010 they operated from Gijon/Oviedo via León, Palencia, Valladolid to Madrid with some trains extended to Alicante via Albacete;[12][13] Santander via Palencia and Valladolid to Madrid, sometimes extended to Alicante;[13][14] Madrid to Bilbao via Valladolid and Burgos;[13][15] Madrid to San Sebastian/Irun via Valladolid, Burgos and Vitoria;[13][16] Madrid to Alicante;[13][17] Huelva and Cadiz[citation needed] and Madrid to Murcia.

Since January 2020 Renfe Class 130 operate on the Figueres-Alicante route via Girona, Barcelona, Camp de Tarragona, Castellón and Valencia for the Euromed services.[7]

On services such as Gijon-Madrid they have been replaced by Renfe Class 120 trainsets (2011).[8]

Developments

[edit]

Renfe Class 730

[edit]

In order to extend high-quality services to parts of Spain not on the high-speed network Renfe acquired hybrid trains with both electric and diesel power[18] for delivery in 2012 for use from Madrid to Murcia and Galicia, built by Talgo and Bombardier, at a cost of 78 million euro.[19] The new trains based on the S-130 were initially coded S130H, later S730;

Fifteen sets S-130 units will be converted to hybrid operation.[20][21] with two generator cars per set using MTU 12V 4000 R43L engines (1.8MW each). The top speed in diesel mode is 180 km/h (112 mph). Testing of the trains took place in 2011 with introduction into service expected in 2012.[22]

250km/h+ prototype train

[edit]

A gauge-changing train capable of over 250 km/h (155 mph) is in development and is based on the S-130.[23]

Uzbekistan trainset order

[edit]

A version of the S130 for Uzbekistan Temir Yollari was ordered in 2009 for use on a Tashkent–Samarkand high-speed line.[24] Deliveries of the order of two trains began in July 2011.[25]

Two more sets were constructed in 2017, following expansion of the service.[26]
