Hi,

Not sure as the platforms can be lower height, the link below is the official RENFE service guide and there is a virtual assistant in English

http://www.renfe.com/EN/viajeros/atendo/servicio_atendo.html

The following is an extract from the guide

Wheelchair users

Wheelchairs may not exceed the following dimensions: width 700 mm, depth 1300 mm, height 1400 mm. (Royal Decree 1544/2007).

If you are travelling in a conventional seat, your wheelchair must fold up for transport.

If you are using other special mobility devices, please ask the Atendo Central Office about the possibility of taking them on the train.

Onboard services

The films shown onboard are subtitled.

Onboard staff is available to provide any help passengers may need. Throughout the journey, they will make sure you're comfortable and monitor your needs.

Travelling with a companion

In cases in which the passenger needs special assistance to communicate, eat, drink or use the washroom, a travel companion will be required.

In cases in which the passenger is unable to understand safety-related instructions given by the crew, the presence of a companion during the journey will be required.
