An Alvia train en route from Madrid to Ferrol derailed just before reaching Santiago de Compostela station on 24 July 2013. Out of the 222 people (218 passengers and 4 crew) aboard, 80 people were killed and 140 were injured. Unofficial technical reports disclose that the train was travelling at over twice the posted speed limit when it entered a curve.

Are you scared when you take the train now? How did you travel to Santiago de Compostela?

 

[metalmachine]

No, Im not scared. If I go inside the train, Im sure I would be (If i survive) And now will aply safety measures strictly. You Know: until tragedy strikes do not take serious measures
Me? I went in car with friends. I went to Santiago sometimes in train to concerts and feasts, but fortunately, nothing happened.
And Yes, the train driver was an stupid, He drive allmost 190 Km/h in a length of 80 because he "carry 5 minutes later" and usually the trains late 5 or 10 minutes. Now he carry allmost 80 deaths in his back.

So no one monitors how fast trains go?? Some modern trains in the US have automatic train stop when it starts overspeeding.

What a stupid driver, amazing he survived.

 

[metalmachine]

But probably yes, because 25 July is the Galician feast an come thousands of people (If the 25 is sunday is Jacobean year, and people of all world peregrinate to Santiago) and the train would stop in Santiago
