Algarve rail line electrification complete after 22 years
Electric trains are set to begin full service on the Algarve line this Sunday, marking the end of a project that began over two decades ago. The upgrade is expected to reduce travel time between Lagos and Vila Real de Santo António by 45 minutes. Meanwhile, the government confirmed that the diesel trains previously used on this route will be redeployed to support rail services in the Alentejo and Western regions.
