Overhead line failure brings rail traffic to a standstill – hectic start to the new timetable

Answer

Were replacement buses available when Mallorca trains stopped running?

Replacement buses were used only sporadically, according to staff reports. That meant not every route was covered immediately, which left many passengers waiting for updates or looking for other transport. In a smaller island network like Mallorca’s, that kind of fallback service can be hard to organise quickly.
