Prince Felipe of Asturias and Girona was in Catalonia today, including Girona, inaugurating the new high speed train connection with France.
The event was much anticipated because it was a chance for the Prince and Spanish Government President Mariano Rajoy to meet with Catalonian president Artur Mas, who has been on an increasingly deepening quest for independence.
Central government representatives used the event to highlight the importance of Catalonia within Spain, and show the train as an investment in the region.
But local officials said it was too little, too late.
