History and description
The station was inaugurated on 13 July 1876,[1] as the 48.76 km Torrijos–Talavera stretch of the Madrid–Extremadura line was opened on that day.[2] Soon later, on 2 September 1877, the 35.0 km stretch from Talavera to Oropesa was opened.[2] The façade of the building displays ornamental tiles.[3]
It lies at the kilometre 134.2 of the conventional gauge railway line linking Madrid to Valencia de Alcántara.[1]
Renfe Operadora operates Media Distancia passenger services between Madrid and Talavera,[4] as part of the Line 52. It also operates Regional and Intercity services.[5] As of January 2020, the station features an average of 106 users per day.[6]
