High-speed rail services between Barcelona-Sants and Figueres-Vilafant have been restored on Saturday 17 October after a power failure in the overhead line stopped traffic on part of the route earlier this morning.

The incident affected the section between Vilobí d'Onyar and [Girona](https://barna.news/barcelonagirona-high-speed-trains/). For passengers travelling between Barcelona and Figueres-Vilafant, the restoration means trains can again run on the route after the reported service-wide interruption.

Europa Press reported that Adif, Spain's rail infrastructure manager, said normal train circulation had resumed after the fault was resolved. The report did not specify how long the disruption lasted or identify individual affected services.

## Fault was between Vilobí d'Onyar and Girona

The problem was a loss of electrical power in the catenary, the overhead wiring that supplies electricity to trains. It occurred between Vilobí d'Onyar and Girona, on the approach to the Girona section of the Barcelona-Figueres high-speed route.

Adif confirmed the restoration through its social-media account, according to Europa Press. No separate Adif incident notice or direct link to that post is included in the supplied material.

The restored route links Barcelona-Sants, the city's principal long-distance rail station, with Figueres-Vilafant, the station serving high-speed passengers travelling to and from Figueres in Girona province.

## What passengers can check before travelling

Passengers due to use the Barcelona-Sants to Figueres-Vilafant route later on Saturday should check their operator's journey information before leaving for the station, as the reported restoration confirms that circulation has resumed but does not provide train-by-train running details.

Adif's official [rail network status page](https://www.adif.es/c/portal/update%5Flanguage?languageId=en%5FUS&p%5Fl%5Fid=261&redirect=%2Fviajeros%2Festado-de-la-red%3Fp%5Fl%5Fback%5Furl%3D%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dl%25C3%25ADnea%2Blimite%26modified%3Dpast-year%26tag%3Dlicitaci%25C3%25B3n%26delta%3D20%26start%3D4&ref=barna.news) is the official channel for checking network information. Its separate [Figueres station page](https://www.adif.es/w/79309-figueres?ref=barna.news) lists arrivals scheduled on Saturday 17 October, including a 15:45 Rodalies R11 service from Portbou and a 16:06 regional service from Barcelona-Sants.

Those station listings are for Figueres station rather than Figueres-Vilafant. Passengers using high-speed services should therefore confirm the correct station and their booked train directly with their rail operator.
