Renfe Seeks Court Order for 112 Call Recordings in Adamuz Train Crash Probe

The bid aims to clarify whether 112 call handling errors affected aid to Alvia passengers.

Overview

  • Renfe Viajeros filed the request Monday with the Montoro court, asking for the full 112 Andalucía call audio, a final emergency deployment report, details on call‑location methods, and confirmation that the service’s IT systems worked correctly.
  • The company also asked the court to verify whether a call between 112 Madrid and 112 Andalucía led room chiefs to dismiss the possibility that two trains were involved.
  • The push follows an April 7 order in which the judge rejected a similar bid from Spain’s rail accident board as not relevant to the case.
  • Renfe cites a Guardia Civil timeline that found early confusion tied most alerts to the Iryo train and showed a gap from 19:47:28 to 20:31:58 before Alvia was recognized as a separate scene.
  • The January 18 derailment killed 46 people and injured more than 120, and Renfe notes some victims worked for the company, heightening the stakes for any findings on emergency response.
