Interesting pics. When did this happen? Fatalities? Or just injuries?

"Barcelona Train Crash Injures 48

Wow, the train must have had a good roll on it when it hit the shock-absorbing bumper at the end of track! The bumper is buried somewhere in the demolished front end of the train. Latest news says 56 injuries and no fatalities. Most of the injuries are attributed to the passengers standing by the exit doors waiting for the train to stop.....and they went flying! A witness said that the train slowed to the posted speed limit as it entered the station, but didn't slow down any more. Brake failure?
