Spanish railways
According to Spain's Audit Tribunal, the Spanish railway system is in a very bad state. Their report accuses RENFE (the national railway company) of underfunding services, and misdirecting investment. The company has growing debts, and increasingly relies on an ageing infrastructure. The analisis says that the dire state of RENFE's finances has direct implications on passenger safety.
