One of the passengers who was aboard a train that derailed in O Porrino in north-western Spain, killing at least four people and injuring dozens, described the ordeal from the near the scene of the crash, Friday.
The eye-witness stated that it was “an old train and it was going too fast. We were in the second wagon and suddenly we felt the crash.” While the passenger only received minor injuries, his wife was reportedly still being attended to by medics.
Some 60 people were onboard the train, travelling on the Vigo-Oporto route, when it derailed close to the town's station. The train crashed into a part of bridge, forcing the first of the three carriages to completely off the rail tracks.
An investigation has already been launched into the accident.
