Unlike the rest of the Cercanías network, line C-5 more closely resemble the lines of the Madrid Metro rather than a commuter line. The service operates 4-minute headways during the morning rush hours, and 6-8 minute headways during the afternoons. On weekends and holidays, the line operates on a 10-minute frequency. Stations on line C-5 are also much closer to each other than the rest of the Cercanías lines.

Line C-5 is the only Cercanías commuter line to employ the LZB signaling system.
