Request for infrastructure testing

Procedure for requesting infrastructure and facility tests

The approval and verification of rolling stock both by the Railway Companies and the manufacturers of said material, which are not subject to payment by fee, as well as the safety systems, track materials, etc. usually require the use of the infrastructure owned by Adif and its other facilities to perform the necessary tests.
