What is the Renfe Data MCP Server?
Connect to the Renfe Data portal to monitor the Spanish railway network in real-time. This server provides comprehensive access to both live operational data and static historical datasets through the official CKAN infrastructure.
What you can do
- Real-time Tracking — Get precise GPS locations and movement status for Cercanías (commuter) and Long Distance (AVE/LD/MD) trains.
- Trip Updates & Delays — Monitor live delays, cancellations, and platform changes to keep travelers informed.
- CKAN Portal Access — List, search, and inspect metadata for thousands of railway datasets and resources.
- Service Alerts — Retrieve real-time information on accessibility issues, track incidents, or bus substitutions.
- Static Schedules — Fetch direct download URLs for GTFS schedules and station lists for offline analysis.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Renfe Data API Key
- Start querying Spanish railway data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Logistics & Transport Analysts — track fleet movements and analyze network performance metrics.
- Travel App Developers — integrate real-time Spanish train data and GTFS schedules into custom applications.
- Data Scientists — access open government data for urban mobility research and visualization.

Why OpenAI Agents SDK?
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 11 tools from Renfe Data through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries Renfe Data, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.

Renfe Data in OpenAI Agents SDK
Renfe Data and 4,000+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect Renfe Data to OpenAI Agents SDK through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Renfe Data in OpenAI Agents SDK
The Renfe Data MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 11 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in OpenAI Agents SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Renfe Data for OpenAI Agents SDK
Every tool call from OpenAI Agents SDK to the Renfe Data MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How often are the real-time train positions updated?
It depends on the service: Cercanías positions (rt_vehicle_positions_cercanias) update every 20 seconds, while Long Distance trains (rt_vehicle_positions_ld) update every 15 minutes.
Can I check for delays or platform changes for a specific trip?
Yes. Use rt_trip_updates_cercanias or rt_trip_updates_ld to get live information on delays, cancellations, and platform assignments across the network.
Where can I find the static GTFS files for schedules?
You can use the get_static_datasets tool. It returns direct download URLs for GTFS schedule packages and CSV/XLSX lists of all Renfe stations.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
