Regional (Train No. R) is a regional train operated by Portugal Railways on the Portugal national rail network. As a regional train, it is a regional service stopping at every intermediate station within its operating area.
Regional runs on every day of the week, with the timetable above showing the scheduled departure time at each intermediate stop.
Regional typically offers multiple travel classes ranging from economy through to premium options including air-conditioned coaches and where applicable sleeper berths for overnight travel. Current class availability and published fares are best confirmed through the official Portugal Railways booking platform on the day of booking.
On the day of travel, arrive at the originating station at least 30–45 minutes before the scheduled departure time. This gives time to locate the correct platform (platform number is announced on station information displays 20–60 minutes before departure), find your reserved coach (coach numbers are marked along the platform edge at major stations), and board with your luggage. Always cross-check the platform number against your e-ticket or seat reservation before boarding — multiple trains can depart within a short window from adjacent platforms during peak periods.
