We are coming out for a month next Tuesday and have obtained the QR code for free local trains. Does anyone know how it works?? Do you get a ticket at the ticket machine & scan the code instead of paying or do you just scan the code at the barriers? Thanks in advance Johnsb

The free travel passes are available on the Renfe Cercanías app and from ticket offices and self-service machines in railway stations. The passes themselves do not cost anything, but holders have to leave a deposit of ten euros for local train services and 20 euros for medium-distance journeys. Paying by bank card will make it easier for the deposit to be refunded at the end of the validity period if the holder has complied with the terms and conditions, eg has made at least 16 journeys during the four-month period the scheme is in force. If the deposit is made in cash, passengers will have to apply in person for the refund.

If you have already got the code then you just scan in and out of the stations.

Thanks Robert. That should save time missing the ticket machine queue at the airport.
