Tracks
General
General tags in Spain are:
Milestones
The following tags might be sufficient:
- railway=milestone
- railway:position=* VALUE in km, decimals separated with "."
Track gauge
Spain and the iberian peninsula has traditionally used Iberian gauge (Ancho ibérico) (1668mm)
But since the 1990s new railways have been laid out that use the standard (1435mm) that are mainly used for high speed lines. Some metro and tram also use it.
In some parts of the country the local railway uses narrow gauge(Ancho métrico)
Electrification systems
The following electrification systems are used in Spain:
Non-electrified
Iberian gauge
Standard gauge in ADIF high speed lines
Train protection
With manual train protection
With Spanish ASFA (Anuncio de Señales y Frenado Automático)
With ETCS
Signalling
General tags
These tags should be on every signal:
- railway=signal
- railway:signal:direction=(forward/backward) according to the direction of the way
- railway:signal:position=(left/right) according to the direction of the way
- railway:position:exact=365.913 where 365.913 is an example
Main signals
Main signals exist with two aspects (from top: green, red) or three aspects (from top: green, red, yellow)
- railway:signal:main=(ES:main)
- railway:signal:main:form=light
- railway:signal:main:function=(exit/block/entry/intermediate)
Electricity signals
FI14A: End of catenary
- railway:signal:electricity=ES:FI14A
- railway:signal:electricity:form=sign
- railway:signal:electricity:type=end_of_catenary
With a turn direction:
FI14C: Power off shortly
- railway:signal:electricity=ES:FI14C
- railway:signal:electricity:form=sign
- railway:signal:electricity:type=power_off_shortly
Full power off (unless on steep hill or heavy train):
FI14E: Pantograph down
- railway:signal:electricity=ES:FI14E
- railway:signal:electricity:form=sign
- railway:signal:electricity:type=pantograph_down
FI14F: Pantograph up
- railway:signal:electricity=ES:FI14F
- railway:signal:electricity:form=sign
- railway:signal:electricity:type=pantograph_up
FI14G: Pantograph down announcement

- railway:signal:electricity:form=sign
- railway:signal:electricity:type=pantograph_down_advance
FI14H: Power off announcement
- railway:signal:electricity=ES:FI14H
- railway:signal:electricity:form=sign
- railway:signal:electricity:type=power_off_advance
FI14I: Power off
- railway:signal:electricity=ES:FI14I
