The Talgo 350 is a Spanish high-speed trainset built by Talgo, distinguished by its articulated, single-axle passenger cars and a low, tapered nose that earned it the nickname the duck among Spanish rail enthusiasts. Capable of running at up to 350 kilometers per hour, it entered service on Spain's AVE high-speed network, most notably the Madrid to Barcelona line, and became one of the flagship trainsets of Spanish high-speed rail.
