The Cercanías Madrid network is experiencing significant delays this Tuesday in the Henares Corridor following a cable theft that has impacted railway signaling systems.

The incident, detected early this morning, directly affects the section connecting the stations of Torrejón de Ardoz and Alcalá de Henares. According to information provided by Adif, the technical failure in the signaling systems has forced a slowdown of rail traffic in the area.
The lines impacted by this disruption are the C2, C7, C8, and CIVIS services. Infrastructure management technical teams are working on-site to repair the damage caused by the theft and restore normal service as soon as possible.
Such acts of vandalism against railway facilities have become a recurring issue in this area, often causing prolonged disruptions that affect thousands of daily commuters who rely on the train for their regular travel.
