Commuter trains: the keys to a dark March

The month of March will be marked in red on this year's calendar as One of the worst months ever experienced on the commuter rail network Catalonia. The overlapping of a multitude of construction projects, the discontent of Renfe workers over the announcement of the transfer, and the usual service incidents that users are well aware of have led to more than 75 significant incidents being recorded last month. That's practically twenty per week. Or, in other words, more than 2.5 significant incidents on average each day, including those officially reported and those that have come to light because users themselves have publicly denounced the disruption to the service.
