Train driver killed in second deadly Spain rail crash in days


BBC News has the story.

A train driver has been killed and at least 37 people injured, five seriously, after a commuter train derailed and crashed near Barcelona, two days after a deadly two-train collision in southern Spain.

According to local officials, the Rodalies train collided with a retaining wall which fell on to the track between Gelida and Sant SadurnĂ­.

The incident occurred as heavy storms battered north-eastern Spain, with coastal areas in the east and north-west of Spain on high alert because of the weather.

Meanwhile, another train on the Barcelona commuter network also derailed on Tuesday.
