# AVE and Iryo trains collide in Urda, Toledo 29 October 2026 at 11:33 > Investigators examine a potential protocol failure after a Renfe AVE and an Iryo train collided in Urda following a signalling issue. A **Renfe** AVE train and an **Iryo** convoy have been involved in a railway accident in **Urda, Toledo**. Preliminary investigations suggest the driver of the following train failed to receive a 'marcha a la vista' order from the command post before the collision occurred. The 'marcha a la vista' protocol is an exceptional prescription within the Railway Traffic Regulation. It requires drivers to maintain speeds between 30 and 40 km/h, ensuring they can stop for any visible obstacle or signal by overriding automatic safeguards. Investigators are now scrutinising voice recordings between the **Adif** control centre and the AVE cabin. This incident follows a 2026 signalling failure in Adamuz, highlighting risks when ERTMS or ASFA protections are functionally cancelled for manual track use. **Toledo** #UrdaTrainAccident [#Renfe]() [#Iryo]() [#Toledo]() #RailwaySafety ## Related news ## [Renfe drivers call 24-hour strike over safety]() 28 October 2026 at 18:42 ## [At least 50 dead in Toledo high-speed rail crash]() 28 October 2026 at 14:46 ## [Urgent blood appeal after Toledo train collision]() 28 October 2026 at 13:59 ## [Madrid-Andalusia high-speed rail halted by crash]() 28 October 2026 at 11:14 ## [Barcelona-Madrid high-speed rail to resume soon]() 14 October 2026 at 14:00
