A MD editor, tracked nine hours on train tracks: It is his Odyssey
Nobody got rid of the blackout of all of Spain without the last afternoon on Monday. The flow of train tracks, their passengers were most influenced by the lack of electricity and trapped in the middle of nothing without assessing water, food or solutions.
The MD editor Louis Bow, who came out of Atocha, was traveling on a thousand passengers’ train and had to arrive at the sants before eating, but the trip was suddenly 25 km away. Before coming to Zaragoja. Quickly, the problem is normal, not the train, and the rare and drinking of the situation and the short food and drink (in addition to preventing payment systems), it is decided to distribute a bottle of water to each passenger and reserve the resources of young children.
“First people were calm, but the mention of information, the blockage of the bathrooms and the need to leave the terrible hot cars made on the train, allowed us to see that it would eventually take the solution.” Already the situation outside the train is complicated, especially for those who need more attention: families with young children, pregnant women, newborns, …
The first to go to this place is three civil guards. “We asked us to bring water and food to us. They took the people who were worse, but they had to monitor the place where we were so complicated and that they were confused for the closest city Zaragoja blackout.” There are people who have decided to take the field to look for shelter before the sun goes, without seeing the solutions of the authorities.
Sun’s only alternative is to get shelter inside the cars: “They did not allow us to be in the shade until 19 hours. If a train passed in the opposite direction,” Bow explained. Citizens from nearby sites went to this area to provide their help and took those who were worse; Some had to be transferred directly to the hospital, just like a baby less than a month. At 7 pm. A few hours before the train passengers were able to buy water bottles and some cookies, a shield car got a car. Two hours later, the truck filled with water was over with the agony that had already been to maintain bottles before the fell in Arago. Requested with the same food, replied that it would be attempted to manage it.
“At 9 pm they wanted to know how many people we were and to see if you could ask for buses, but they told us that it would be complicated,” the editor of the MD told us, in the morning, he could get home early in the morning. “There is a military area that can solve the situation in and without hours in the car, on the dirt road, on the dirt road, cars, trucks and people in danger.”
After stopping at the gas station to eat and the roads further, more than half of the Spanish territory has already returned: “I was surprised to see the outer normal state. Everything we had inied from the roads was confusing and could not be re -established for a few days.”
