    Train Crash In Spain

    Have just seen the train crash in Spain. Was that train speeding or what?

    One of the drivers has admitted to speeding. How sad when so many people have to die through others stupidity.

    You expect that when you get on a train, that you will get off at the other end of your planned journey, alive and uninjured.
    Dave.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."


    1983 RR gone (wish I kept it)

    Lucky it did not happen in Vic. They would have confiscated the train for a month

    It actually does not look that fast for the curve!

    Here is a video of the accident.

    I have to disagree here. It looks to me like it is flying.

    You heard of the Costa Concordia?

    It's why I like to drive, and hate being driven.
