It all started around four in the afternoon.. Everything for him train derailment between Chamartín and Atocha. After an event that forced services to be transferred from Chamartín to Atocha. That’s when it all started. It was when the chaos began that, even today, is noticed at the station The Plaza del Emperador Carlos V in Madrid.
And that was the beginning of everything that happened later. Because everything got worse when, at 7:30 p.m., a person at an unauthorized point forced law enforcement to act and others to cut off electricity on the roads.
Result, chaos in Atocha. “There has been a delay since five o’clock in the afternoon. The station is very busy. They are not giving us any water… “It’s a shame” » said one of those affected by what happened in the train service.
Cancellations, delays…
She wasn’t the only one. With it, another 8,000 more people, which over time fell to 3,500 to rise again on Sunday. Because now there are 15,000 people affected due to the cancellation of many trains and delays, averaging 45 minutes, from which others suffer. Additionally, the derailed train has not yet been removed from the tracks.
That’s how it happened. People did what they could to make the wait easier and even they started dancing a conga to the rhythm of “an elephant balancing on a spider’s web”, in images that have gone viral on social networks.
