The '''Renfe Class 130''' or '''S-130'''<ref>From ''Serie 130 de Renfe''</ref> ([[Spanish language|Spanish]]: '''Serie 130 de Renfe''', manufacturer's designation '''Talgo 250''') is a high-speed [[variable gauge|dual-gauge]], [[Multi-system (rail)|dual-voltage]] trainset consisting of 11 [[Talgo VII]] tilting coaches and two [[power car]]s, used on [[Alvia]] and [[Euromed (train)|Euromed]] services.<ref>[http://www.renfe.es/alvia/alvia_preferente.html Trayectos y Servicios - clase preferente] ''www.renfe.es''</ref><ref>[http://www.renfe.es/alvia/alvia_turista.html Trayectos y Servicios - clase turista] ''www.renfe.es''</ref><ref name="Euromed">{{cite news |url=https://www.lavanguardia.com/local/barcelona/20200102/472670985801/trayecto-barcelona-valencia-alicante-girona-figueres-euromed-renfe-variante-vandellos.html |title=El trayecto en tren entre Barcelona y València se reducirá más de media hora  |date=2 January 2020 |work=La Vanguardia |access-date=9 May 2023 }}</ref> The class have been nicknamed ''patitos'' (ducklings), due to the shape of the train nose.<ref name="gj">{{citation| url = http://www.lavozdeasturias.es/asturias/nuevos-Alvia-convencen_0_425357477.html| language = Spanish| work = www.lavozdeasturias.es| title = Los nuevos Alvia no convencen| date = 11 February 2011}}{{Dead link|date=November 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

==Background and design==
The trainsets are designed for high-speed services on [[Iberian gauge]] ({{RailGauge|1668mm}}) and high-speed ({{RailGauge|1435mm}}) lines; they can change gauge at low speed without stopping using Talgo's RD [[variable gauge]] system.<ref>[http://conference.europoint.eu/railtechrussia2007/session2/oriol.pdf “Talgo RD” Variable Gauge System: A solution to eliminate barriers in the transport of goods and passengers between East and West]{{dead link|date=April 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} Rail Tech Russis, inter-nation conference, June 2007, ''conference.europoint.eu''</ref> The carriages are constructed from aluminium and incorporate the ''Talgo Pendular ''passive pendulum tilting system,<ref name="tp">[http://www.talgoamerica.com/pdf/Talgo-Coaches-Brochure-Foldout.pdf The Talgo Pendular Coaches] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716191009/http://www.talgoamerica.com/pdf/Talgo-Coaches-Brochure-Foldout.pdf |date=2011-07-16 }} ''www.talgoamerica.com''</ref> are sealed against pressure differences for tunnel travel,<ref name="td"/> and have underframe air conditioning, individual audio systems and video displays, rotating and reclining seats and power outlets.<ref name="tap"/>

Capacity in standard class is 36 seated, in first class 26 seats, end coaches have lower capacity, one coach is typically used for restaurant/sales services.<ref name="td"/>

The power cars use AC traction motors controlled by [[IGBT]] inverters which include integrated auxiliary inverters. Signalling systems can include [[ETCS]] Level 2, [[LZB]], [[Anuncio de Señales y Frenado Automático|ASFA]] and [[Ebicab900TBS]].<ref name="tp2">[http://www.talgoamerica.com/pdf/Talgo-Coaches-Brochure-Foldout.pdf The Talgo Pendular Coaches] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716191009/http://www.talgoamerica.com/pdf/Talgo-Coaches-Brochure-Foldout.pdf |date=2011-07-16 }} POWER HEAD TALGO 250, Page 7, ''www.talgoamerica.com''</ref>

==Operations and services==
As of January 2010 they operated from [[Gijon]]/[[Oviedo]] via [[León, Spain|León]], [[Palencia]], [[Valladolid]] to [[Madrid]] with some trains extended to [[Alicante]] via [[Albacete]];<ref>[http://www.renfe.es/fichastrenes/pdf/gijon-alicante-alvia130.pdf Alvia service : Gijon-Alicante] ''www.renfe.es'' {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100403111621/http://www.renfe.es/fichastrenes/pdf/gijon-alicante-alvia130.pdf |date=April 3, 2010 }}</ref><ref name="alt1">[http://www.renfe.com/empresa/comunicacion/productos_trenes/alvia_s130.html Nuestros Trenes .

On services such as Gijon-Madrid they have been replaced by [[Renfe Class 120]] trainsets (2011).<ref name="gj"/>

==Developments==

===Renfe Class 730===
{{main|Renfe Class 730}}
In order to extend high-quality services to parts of Spain not on the high-speed network Renfe acquired hybrid trains with both electric and diesel power<ref>[http://www.laopinioncoruna.es/secciones/noticia.jsp?pRef=2009062600_4_298887__Galicia-supertren-conectara-ciudades-gallegas-mitad-tiempo-2012 Un ´supertren´ conectará las ciudades gallegas en la mitad de tiempo en 2012] 26/6/2009, ''www.laopinioncoruna.es''</ref> for delivery in 2012 for use from Madrid to [[Murcia]] and [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], built by Talgo and Bombardier, at a cost of 78 million euro.<ref>[http://www.europapress.es/economia/transportes-00343/noticia-economia-ave-renfe-invertira-78-millones-euros-adaptar-quince-trenes-ave-vias-electrificar-20091229160423.html Renfe invertirá 78 millones de euros en adaptar quince trenes AVE a vías sin electrificar] 29/12/2009, ''www.europapress.es''</ref> The new trains based on the '''S-130''' were initially coded '''''S130H''''', later '''''S730''''';

The top speed in diesel mode is {{Cvt|180|km/h|4=0}}. Testing of the trains took place in 2011 with introduction into service expected in 2012.<ref>{{citation|url= http://www.railwaygazette.com/index.php?id=44&no_cache=1&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=13956&cHash=57808e7509| work =www.railwaygazette.com| publisher = [[Railway Gazette International]]| title= High speed electro-diesel trainset on test| date = 21 September 2011 }}</ref>

A gauge-changing train capable of over {{Cvt|250|km/h|4=0}} is in development and is based on the '''S-130'''.<ref>[http://www.vialibre-ffe.com/noticias.asp?not=3794&cs=mate Talgo ha comenzado la construcción de un prototipo de tren de ancho variable a 300 km/h] ''www.vialibre-ffe.com''</ref>

===Uzbekistan trainset order===
A version of the S130 for ''[[Uzbek Railways|Uzbekistan Temir Yollari]]'' was ordered in 2009 for use on a  [[Tashkent–Samarkand high-speed rail line|Tashkent–Samarkand high-speed line]].<ref>[http://www.uzdaily.com/articles-id-8154.htm Uzbekistan Temir Yollari, Patentes Talgo S.A. sign 38m euro contract] ''www.usdaily.com''</ref> Deliveries of the order of two trains began in July 2011.<ref>{{citation|url= http://www.railwaygazette.com/index.php?id=44&no_cache=1&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=13680&cHash=dca8f029fa|title = Talgo 250 arrives in Toshkent| date = 26 July 2011| work = www.railwaygazette.com| publisher = [[Railway Gazette International]]}}</ref>

Two more sets were constructed in 2017, following expansion of the service.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://trainpix.org/list.php?mid=1217|title = Talgo 250 — List of the vehicles}}</ref>
