Passengers Scramble to Evacuate Train After Deadly Spain Crash

Leaked audio recordings that were published in a Spanish newspaper reveal the back-and-forth conversation between the train drivers and a control center just minutes before a deadly crash on Wednesday morning. The audio only tells half the picture, a spokesperson for the train drivers' union said.

The transport minister said a judge would investigate controllers’ actions, including authorizing a train to proceed at high speed though another was stalled in front of it.

As some of the victims' names are released publicly, an outpouring of grief and anger is sweeping across Spain.

Eyewitness footage shows passengers evacuating from the site of a deadly train collision near Urda, central Spain, on Wednesday, Oct 28. The crash left at least 69 people dead and dozens injured.
