From a derailed train on a straight stretch of track... no. Very likely maintenance related somehow.

From a derailed train on a straight stretch of track... no. Very likely maintenance related somehow.
- drdirk 10mo agoSpanish article from LaVanguardia states that the train was rather new and the track recently maintained.
- AdamN 10mo agoNew isn't always better. Lots of these types of accidents are because there was a repair or update that caused the failure.
- pixl97 10mo agoRecently maintained is more concerning if you look at the failure rate as a bathtub curve. Failure rates are much higher within the days after maintenance because any defects in repairs are apt to show up quickly.
