I have been planning to visit Guadalajara for a long time. Now it is a bedroom suburb of Madrid. The city was catastrophically damaged during the Civil War, when the line of defense of the republican Madrid passed here. If we say "before / after the War", then they mean the Great Patriotic War, for the Spaniards it is the Civil War! I rode "for good luck", not deciding on the return. At the Guadalajara train station, the first thing I looked at was the schedule - trains back to Madrid only in the evening! Just in case, I asked the pretty girl in the ticket window if there was a day train? - Yes, it turns out there is, probably on the occasion of Sunday.
