What happened

Spain is considering suspending rail service between Madrid and Barcelona after a deadly train crash in Toledo province, Transport Minister Óscar Puente said, according to Bloomberg.

The collision of high-speed trains has killed at least 69 people, LB.ua reported.

The Madrid–Barcelona line, the busiest in the country, is due to be rebuilt next year.

Normally service continues during such work, with maintenance done at night and on weekends.

A full halt could leave Spain's two biggest cities without direct trains for one to two years, per Bloomberg.

Puente said the decision also concerns punctuality and reliability of service, not only safety.
