Train services on the RL4 Rodalies line in Spain have been suspended due to two landslides that blocked the tracks between the towns of Manresa, Calaf, and Cervera. This interruption of services, confirmed by Adif (the railway infrastructure manager) and Renfe (the operator), began around 10 AM when the first landslide occurred between Manresa and Calaf, leading to the immediate closure of the track. Subsequently, a second landslide occurred between Calaf and Cervera, further impacting the service.

The incidents were attributed to recent heavy rainfall in the region, which has caused various disruptions in railway services. In response to these interruptions, Renfe has arranged alternative road transport for affected passengers to mitigate the impact of the service suspension. This situation highlights ongoing challenges in maintaining railway infrastructure in the face of severe weather events, which are becoming increasingly common due to climate change.

As heavy rains continue in the region, the safety and efficiency of public transport remain a key concern. Authorities are working to address the landslides and restore train services, but customers are advised to stay updated on the situation and consider alternative transportation options until the service resumes. This incident underscores the vulnerability of transportation infrastructure to natural events and the necessity for preventive measures during extreme weather conditions.
