According to El Pais, the accident occurred shortly after 9 am local time (0800 GMT) between the towns of Los Yebenes and Urda, in the province of Toledo. It involved a high-speed AVE train that had left Madrid bound for Seville and an Iryo train travelling in the opposite direction, the report said.
