Trains run frequently through the day, tickets are bought from machines on the platform, and the fare down the coast is a couple of euros rather than a taxi fare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"glaser-callout\">\n<div class=\"callout-title\">The line does not go inland<\/div>\n<p>The C1 stops at Fuengirola and goes no further.
