Haizea the Spanish Tapas bar-restaurant of iryo is not a partner, its an own brand of iryo. The catering partner is Gategourmet but the Brand and the concept is 100% owned by iryo. Thanks !
@simplyrailway this is Iryo’s CEO! Its very cool to see a company executive engaging directly with the train geek audience, feels very digital native. Cant wait to try Iryo!
Unbelievable how fast you got this video out. Great job as always! I do wish other nations would join Spain in opening up their markets to real competition.
This is in my opinion Spain's best train. I am going to ride them in August My list for HSTS im Spain would be 1. Iryo 2. AVE 3. AVLO 4. Ouigo Also, your videos are some of the best on the whole world
I’ve just been on the Frecciarossa 1000 from Rome to Venice and I’ve never realized before the biggest feature of this train: the carriages are pressurized just like on an airplane. Never experienced anything like it before, you could not feel any difference when it entered a tunnel. Plus I was seating in standard class and actually the seat itself was as comfortable as the business class seat on Italo Evo (their brand new train) that I’ve picked the day before (except that it couldn’t recline)
The infrastructure and the quality of service in Spain looks very impressive. It’s interesting by the way to observe how many passengers continue to wear face coverings versus not. The political jurisdiction appears to really make an impact on this.
In Spain is still mandatory by law to wear face masks on public transportation. But in Barcelona most people don’t wear face coverings anymore on the metro trains, and the security guards no longer policy it.
As a Spaniard I never been on a long train journey within my country, and I would like to have that experience. This train company looks amazing and chic! Fantastic review!!😍😍
I see, they're really building an ambitious product. You can travel with Cercanías trains at the origin of travel free from 4 hours before the train departure time, and also travel free with Cercanías trains within 4 hours after arrived your destinations. And you can also enjoy exclusive offers in cooperating hotels. This makes arranging business travel between cities with rail network coverage so much easier.
No, it’s not extensive and even less expansive. Beside the route to the main cities (4-5) all other connections are awful. Where I live (in the very south of Spain) there’s only 1 train per day at 7:30am to Madrid which takes over 6 hours
Le plus étendu, c'est la Suisse, le meilleur, je ne peux pas le dire, ce serait prétentieux de notre part. Nous sommes les terriens qui prenons le plus le train. Salutation de la Suisse
Great trip, and great train. The competition of High Speed Train in Spain looks great. Only three classes onboard and the onboard service looks amazing.
Great to see a review about this new service uploaded so quick! Congrats! It really is a nice trainset the ETR1000 and so good to see it up and running on other geographies. Wish Iryo the best of luck on this endeavour. It would also be nice to see SNCF have some more competition on her own turf by the way
Looks amazing! I wish there were more interconnecting routes between countries, like from Lisbon to Seville or Barcelona, Barcelona to Milano, Milano to Paris...
Thanks so much for this! I saw the iryo on booking tickets and i was Wondering what will be like. Frecciarosa still are my favourite trains so i am looking forward to get on this iryo one! You're the updatest of the updated youtuber!🙂
Looking forward to all of these high speed companies expanding to the south (Seville, and hopefully Cadiz). And hopefully the quality will stay high. Great video.
Thanks for the review. I'm based in the South, so will give Iryo a go in 2023. Competition is a good thing for customers, but the market needs more international routes if we are going to cut air travel in Europe. Plus, in Spain almost all high speed services radiate from Madrid. Filling in the gaps for cross-country routes is taking a long time.
Competition in the passenger rail system is idiotic. The best example for this being the UK. Ask any UK train user how satisfied she/he is with that system - and then compare with e.g. Switzerland (zero competition) and Austria - not France (strikes), or Germany (reliability), however.
@@akbk2505 But you're mixing high speed and conventional services. Italy has been doing it since 2012, with Trenitalia competing with Italo, and so far we are quite satisfied. Anyway, a comparison should be made with Italy (for example), not with the UK that does it with commuter trains.
Another problem is that many small and medium cities, and vast parts of many regions, are not reached by train services. Because of this, for night trains being non-existent and also because all the HS lines go through Madrid, many Spanish people prefer to use cars and aeroplanes to save time. Spain is also stopping Portugal from being connected to the rest of Europe’s HS network. Spain only focussed on expanding its high speed network with EU regional development funds to show how better they are in comparison with France, Italy etc. , but they totally forgot to look after their citizens and provide basic services to them. This is one of the reasons most of Spain is emptying out, the famous “España vacía”.
MrMaximino92 You seem to have something against Spain for some reason, but the emptying of rural regions is a global phenomenon, not a spanish one, and we’re not stopping Portugal from doing anything, the french have resisted any further integration of the iberian rail network with theirs in fear of the competition it would bring to their local companies, despite the fact that we opened our markets to theirs.
The best and comfortable HS train, but in a very reasonable price. I'm sure it will be the finest price quality. Looking forward to enjoy a trip in Iryo! 🚄 ❤️
Amazing video.Thanks for do it!Uauhhh!... que tren mas bonito! y parece muy!comodo La comida espero sea mucho mejor! que la de renfe..Soy de y vivo en Barcelona asi que viajare solo en iryo a partir de ahora.Buen viaje a todos!aunque seguiremos viajando con 😷obligatoria por ahora.

Very enjoyable trips we had with Iryo. Barcelona to Madrid. Madrid to Seville. Thanks to Spain and the beautiful Spanish people for the great experience. Wish we have them in the US!!
Excellent, informative and practical video as usual. Always like your videos and enjoy watching them. I also prefer trains to air travel when I can. The best advantage with trains is that one boards and alights at the centre of the town in most instances.
(Sharon Shneyer, Philadelphia PA USA), I agree with your comments, though I haven't had a need to be on a plane in over 35 years. I'm a former rail and transit activist, the US will never see high speed trains like this, at least not in my lifetime (I'm 63). The Acela only goes at a high speed for about 15 minutes/miles, I forget where the track is straight. WHAT HAS HAPPENED WITH THE TALGO? Might you know? Sorry about the caps, I don't get much information these days, even though I am subscribed. Thank you.
@@ringdoorbell3223 If you mean the Spanish national operator RENFE and their AVE services when referring to Talgo (AVE partly uses Talgo trains), RENFE and Iryo are competing for the spanish high speed rail market. Both offers coexist
@@ringdoorbell3223 nobody asked about the USA, your state or your city. Why do you US Americans ALWAYS have to make everything about your own country? Really, we don't care.
Hey Thibault! I was from BCN to MAD with the next train, and right now i am on my way back to BCN. Both trips with Infinita Bristo (coach 1). There is a difference between coach 1 and coach 2 - Infinita Bistro vs Infinita. The food and drinks are included only with Infinita Bistro. In the morning I had the menu with salmon - tasty! Now, i had the one with jamon (same as you). You can also ask for a lot of drinks - i had already cava, red wine and even some cuba libre :) Amazing experience!
Fantastic trip, at least Spain know how to do high speed, maybe Trenitalia need to take over Avanti fully, be amazing to see a Frecciarossa in the UK (we can dream)
@@alessiovalentini4401 What I mean is that AnsaldoBreda bellongs to Hitachi. Technically Italian but owned by Japanese, which doesn’t make FrecciaRossa better or worse. Just a remark. 😉 I am terribly happy to have them here in Spain.

I always enjoy your weekly video outings. I've taken a train several times, but NOT overnight. I'm one that needs quiet and my bed not moving. But, We'll see soon if I can sleep on a train. BTW< November 25th, 2021 or 2022? In the U.S., We have Amtrak Nationally, while there are interstate, and Regional carriers. But, as Fright has priority here it will take those companies to allow higher speed competition in giving an alternative to flying.
Finally, a train company that noticed that they have to offer as great service as an airline. This breakfast is even better than on any European business class.
i hope the ETR1000 comes also to the netherlands with a highspeed service from Amsterdam to paris - Milano or Amsterdam Paris - Madrid or Barcelona. Not enough Companys do this and they should open up the market for everyone to travel quick safe and relayable
The HSR market seems to be HUGE in Spain. Now the number of operators is 4! That seems like a lot to an American like me. Why do so many companies want to operate with competition?
3 operators (Renfe, Trenitalia-Air Nostrum & SNCF) with 4 brands/services (Avlo & AVE of Renfe, OuiGo of SNCF and Iryo of Trenitalia). And the railway manager, that gives the license to the operators, is Adif (which is public, or federal in US terms). Avlo and OuiGo are low cost.
I think iryo is going to be a hard competitor to Ave, I think a lo anb ouigo are other league. I wish iryo thw best, I used them in Italy and was a good experience.
There is one italien train in germany. Its a ECE line from Frankfurt to Milano. They use the italiene train because only he can stop at Ringsheim (Europapark). The entrance in the ICEs are to high.
9:42 I overheard a couple people in the bar saying that the seats there were reserved for the bar, didn’t get to take your train unfortunately but the 7:20 Madrid-Zaragoza-Barcelona one
Here’s the link for the different classes :
iryo.eu/en/products
I have to agree with you. Barcelona-Sants is a shame and needs to be reconstructed to say the least.
Honestly as an italian i can't wait to just hop on a train in turin and get to spain without ever switching train, would make a trip that i've often done by car in a day so much quicker and pleasant

3 operators (Renfe, Trenitalia-Air Nostrum & SNCF) with 4 brands/services (Avlo & AVE of Renfe, OuiGo of SNCF and Iryo of Trenitalia). And the railway manager, that gives the license to the operators, is Adif (which is public, or federal in US terms).
Avlo and OuiGo are low cost.
Because of the liberalization of the railways in all of the EU countries, set out by the EU, which countries like France, mainly, are hindering.

Hello from Italy :D
it is rumored that germany will be the next country where trenitalia's frecciarossa will be introduced.
So much better than the UK prices especially on The West Coast Mainline at present.
Beautiful!
The speed is quite apparent from the rolling shutter at ~12:06 when passing a station ;-)
I traveled this route in 2015(I think), and it was fast and efficient then.
Great video! And sorry €55 with tapas & wine included?? 😮❤❤❤
Very impressive.
I think iryo is going to be a hard competitor to Ave, I think a lo anb ouigo are other league. I wish iryo thw best, I used them in Italy and was a good experience.
I love parallel races❤️
I never seen a train this new wow !
beautiful train!
@Jg235 but a bit shaky and less comfortable than TALGO
Muy buen video. Por cierto, soy una de las personas que sale en el jajaja. Saludos.
There is one italien train in germany. Its a ECE line from Frankfurt to Milano. They use the italiene train because only he can stop at Ringsheim (Europapark). The entrance in the ICEs are to high.

Bring this company to Brussels Paris Amsterdam London routes would be awesome
Renfe will enter the French Market
9:42 I overheard a couple people in the bar saying that the seats there were reserved for the bar, didn’t get to take your train unfortunately but the 7:20 Madrid-Zaragoza-Barcelona one
Parece que dice "es cómodo y espacioso". Aún así, Dios te guarde esa fina audición. 😂

Initial class is in coaches 6,7 and 8
Singular is in coaches 5 and half of coaches 4 because in c 4 there is a special place to eat
55€ is amazing!
Oh, so it’s a train made by trenitalia...
I was wondering why it looked like freciarossa
I hope they are better than the fyra trains made in Italy and sent back to Italy due to several issues
