[[Badajoz railway station]], ({{langx|es|Estación de Tren de Badajoz}}), (IATA: BQZ), situated in the north of the city, is the only [[railway station]] at Badajoz. The station accommodates long-distance and medium-distance trains, both operated by the public company [[Renfe]]. It is the last Spanish railway station before the [[Portugal|Portuguese]] railway system. It is expected the station will be replaced by a new facility located at the border with Portugal with high-speed services run by the [[AVE#Southwest–Portuguese corridor|Southwest–Portuguese corridor]] and the [[High-speed rail in Spain#Madrid–Lisbon|Madrid–Lisbon line]]. In August 2017 [[Comboios de Portugal]], the Portuguese national railway company, instituted a daily service from Badajoz to [[Entroncamento]], with connections to Lisbon and Porto.<ref name="Archived copy">{{Cite web |url=https://www.cp.pt/passageiros/en/train-times/Alerts/leste-29-agosto |title=Linha do Leste - Comboios Regionais 5500 e 5501&#124; CP |access-date=August 31, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170831221415/https://www.cp.pt/passageiros/en/train-times/Alerts/leste-29-agosto |archive-date=August 31, 2017 |url-status=dead|df=mdy-all }}</ref>
