This is just 9 months after another catastrophic railway accident in Spain. In Adamuz, january 18th of this year 2026. 46 confirmed dead.

Yes, same government. 0 resignations, 0 political consequences, 0 apologies.

The system has been in a steep decline for 5 years at least.

I take the plane now, because between delays, stops in the middle of nowhere and strong vibrations where there was a smooth ride before, it became unbearable.

seems very negligent. trains shouldn't be colliding in this day and age - given modern signal systems etc
