The Renfe Class 730 or S-730[5] (Spanish: Serie 730 de Renfe, manufacturer's designation Talgo 250 Dual) is a high-speed dual-gauge, dual-voltage and hybrid (electric and diesel) trainset consisting of 9 Talgo VII tilting coaches, two intermediate diesel-generator cars and two head electric power cars, used on Alvia services.[6][7] The class have been nicknamed patitos (ducklings/little ducks), due to the shape of the train nose.[8] They are a variant of RENFE Class 130 modified to be able to run on both electric and diesel power, in order to extend higher-quality services to parts of Spain not on the electrified network.
