The author said Iryo’s CEO had warned 23 days before the accident that failures in the “fairly old” LZB system were leaving trains immobilised. They argued the accident was not solely due to human error and alleged a record of negligence by Spain’s transport authorities, which they said answered to an entity linked in the post. https://t.co/96ItBJqVCY #TransportesEspaña #SeguridadVial #Accidentes #ES

The author argued that the LZB failed repeatedly and that the minister had suggested this the day before. He also stated that the problem was due to the deterioration of the system and the negligence of the Government, not to human error, and said that the minister should have already resigned.

D. Pelayo stated that the LZB system, the light signals, and the safety system had failed, which did not detect that a train traveled for 20 minutes towards a fatal situation. He also pointed out that the ADIF controller was alone, although, as he wrote, there should have been two, and he accused the Government of attributing the incident to a worker's mistake. He indicated that there were 68 deaths and expressed his condolences. #Tragedia #SeguridadVial #Fallecidos (translated)

Pablo Haro Urquízar wrote that Iryo had warned ADIF weeks before that its trains were stopping on the Madrid-Andalusia line due to LZB failures. He added that the company's CEO had said in the Senate on October 5 that it was the most common failure and that the train could not move. Haro questioned the later statement that "it could not be known." https://t.co/PSfXoWxIZT #Trenes #ADIF #SeguridadVial (translated)

Pablo Haro Urquízar wrote that the ERTMS security system for the Madrid-Sevilla line, approved in 2020 and awarded in 2021 for 93.8 million, was supposed to be ready since January 2026. He also stated that, after the old LZB failed, the control center authorized the AVE to circulate and it collided with a stopped Iryo, resulting in at least 68 deaths. https://t.co/HYXgKCdO4b #AVESeguro #SeguridadVial #Trenes (translated)

The Adif engineer, Carlos Sánchez de Roda, criticizes the decision to allow a worker to control the track after the failure of the LZB system, arguing that the ASFA system, which should have acted, did not activate, thus contributing to the series of recent fatal accidents on the high-speed network in Spain. #AccidenteFerroviario #AltaVelocidad #SeguridadVial (translated)

The article explains how the LZB security system works on the high-speed line to Andalucía and compares it with the ERTMS used in Barcelona, highlighting the implications of a recent train accident in Toledo that has sparked a debate about the safety and effectiveness of these systems. #LZB #seguridadferroviaria #accidentetren (translated)

Adif highlights on its website that the Control Center uses the most advanced system in the world to manage trains; however, the recent train accident in Toledo, which left at least 68 dead, reveals a human and system failure in resuming circulation after an error with the LZB system. #Tren #AccidenteFerroviario #Adif (translated)

The leaked audios between Adif and the train drivers reveal a chaos in the control of railway traffic during the Toledo accident, where the resumption of normal speed was erroneously authorized despite the failure of the LZB system and without activating the ASFA safety mechanism. #AccidenteToledo #SeguridadVial #TransporteFerroviario (translated)

The president of the Association of Civil Engineers, José Trigueros, has pointed to Minister Óscar Puente as responsible for the train accident in Toledo, arguing that the lack of maintenance and a failure in the LZB security system were critical causes of the disaster that left at least 64 dead. #AccidenteFerroviario #Infraestructuras #SeguridadVial (translated)

As a result of a failure in the LZB safety system and a key error by the controller in the control center, the AVE train collided with the back of the stationary Iryo train, leading to a train disaster in Spain that resulted in the deaths of at least 64 people. #katastrofa #kolej #Hiszpania (translated)

Óscar Puente, Minister of Transport, blames Adif for allowing a Renfe train to resume its journey after a safety failure in the LZB system, which culminated in an accident between the AVE and an Iryo train in Urda (Toledo), and although he acknowledges possible failures in the protocols, he defends the safety of the Spanish railway system. #AccidenteFerroviario #Renfe #SeguridadFerroviaria (translated)
