I want to travel with cases etc from Barajas to Centro.Last time I
travelled I remember that the taxi was quite expensive, how much should
a taxi be? and is there a bus or train ? Any advice gratefully received.
TIA

No idea.

and is there a bus or train ?


There's a metro service which requires at least one change of train to get
to any of the popular destinations.

Tickets from the Airport are priced at a premium to the rest of the network
(though still not particularly expensive) and if you try and use a "normal"
priced ticket the gates wont open until you buy a supplementary ticket.

Metro of course, the carriages of that line are luggage friendly, not the
others tho.

The train is at Barajas. Very simple. Download Metro map and proceed.
If you are encumbered by too many cases/luggage/children (who may get lost
inadvertently) take a taxi.
The Metro is certainly a delight under most circumstances.
