Talgo 4 Sleeperettes-car (TA4L-431.001), seen on Trenhotel 875 "Antonio Gaudi", upon arrival from Madrid-Chamartin.
This car was rebuilt fron a dining-car (TR4-410) in 1993, so as to offer enhanced seating, marketed as 1st-class accommodation.
The "Antonio Gaudi" (Barcelona<->Madrid) is the only domestic Spanish Trenhotel where such accommodation is available (along with conventional 2nd-class seating).
Other domestic services conversely feature conventional seating, often on a single-class basis.
Barcelona-Sants.
