The reactions of people who already had their ticket, train tickets and accommodation were not long in coming. Many are wondering, on social networks, whether or not they should take a train to Madrid. Others criticize the lack of response from the Community and the organization.

The disappointment on the part of the participants and the organization is evident before this unexpected cancellation.
