Not a Rolex. Can my Tudor play? A bit of sadness with this pic as I'm sure I was in the Madrid station yesterday with some of those folks involved in yesterday's terrible train crash. It was a freak accident I know. I love traveling by train.

Timely... considering what happened to the high-velocity train in Spain today. Thoughts to the victims and families.

Nice pictures, BTW.

A freak accident? A freak accident is something you have no control over.

When the driver decides to travel and enter a corner at 180km/h instead of the allowed 80km/h that's something you can definitely control and prevent.

I like your shirt and jacket, too, from what I can see. Looks like a sharp combination.

And apparently there were two rail employees/drivers in the cabin/cockpit or whatever you call it on trains...... It's also unbelievable that there is no automatic over-ride perhaps governed by GPS when the train is clearly travelling to fast.....

I didn't hear or see anything on the train accident until it was mentioned here. My thoughts go out to all the families that were impacted by this tragedy.
