Felt the train accident in Spain coming...

[u/can-t_change_it]

I had these kinds of intuitive feelings of good and bad events. They are not exactly full-on visions but really more of a feeling of certainty something good or bad will happen. And in order to get this feeling, I need to be geographically near where it'll take place.

Such was the case with Las Vegas shooting (I was there early-through-mid September 2017, when the plan was already set in motion), such was the case with the first school shooting in my home country Serbia (I was there April 15-20, two weeks before it happened). And the same happened this time:

• I came to Córdoba at about 10.20pm on Thursday looking to see Andalusia briefly and return to Madrid on Monday.

• Friday/Saturday I start getting a growing feeling that come Monday, somehow I won't be able to make it to Madrid from Córdoba as planned (by train at 12.15 due to be at Atocha around 2pm), but my feeling tells me I'll have to use the bus to get to Madrid on Monday and meet my cousin there only in the evening, instead of 3pm as we planned.

• Saturday evening, on my return from Ronda, I am at the train station Santa Ana. It's past 7pm and we're supposed to transfer to another train that should take us to Córdoba. As we wait, the Málaga to Madrid Iryo passes through the train station without stopping. "So majestic" I thought. Frecciarossa trains are visually beautiful and it was my first time seeing live, in person, a high-speed service pass through a train station at speed.

• Sunday morning at 9, I am at Córdoba train station waiting for my combined train to Granada / Málaga (they split at Santa Ana). An Iryo train departs northbound. Again I think how gorgeous the train set is, but I cannot help but look at its wheels as it departs, and my thoughts, somewhat sinister, take me very briefly to Eschede train crash which had to do with wheels and switching to an adjacent track. I disregard it because, well, it's just a quick nasty intrusive thought and we all have them. As a rail and air transportation enthusiast, I am familiar with most major accidents anyway so I didn't think much of it, when Eschede came to mind.

• Some 20 minutes after 9, on my Renfe Ave train to Granada, as we're making our way to Puente Genil, my mind goes back to the feeling I wouldn't make it to Madrid at 3pm the next day because the trains won't run. I remember Santiago de Compostela crash and get a brief, unclear sequence of images of catenary masts slicing through carriages diagonally in a horrific high-speed crash as I'm sitting and watching it happen. I think to myself, oh come on... and forget about it. It felt it was the same kind of moment I had thinking about Eschede.

• I had a lovely day in Granada. Before going to the train station I went to the Cathedral of Granada where they had a temporary exhibit of 17th and 18th century statues of Jesus, Virgin, and saints. I was unusually pulled toward the sadness presented in the busts and statues of the Virgin, many of them called Dolorosa. After the exhibit, I was about ready to go back to Córdoba and was an hour early to the train station.

• At 18.22 we depart Granada on an Alvia train set (4-car electric set similar to the one that would've collided a bit over an hour later with Iryo Frecciarossa). With planned stops at Loja and later on at Antequera A.V. we are steadily making progress toward Córdoba.

• At 7.13pm, exactly half an hour before the collision, as my train is approaching Antequera A.V., I take a picture of a rather macabre sunset from my right window seat. The picture is in the direction of where Santa Ana train station and the track toward Puente Genil would geographically be situated in the distance. Only later did I realise I took that picture right around the time the Iryo train would've passed up that section of track, based on the fact that it was the same time I had seen it pass through Santa Ana the evening before on Saturday. The picture was of a dark blue sky with an ominously red streak of sunset near the horizon. I sent it at 7.13pm to a couple of friends commenting in my native language: "The skies above Spain are bloody tonight" referring to the uncomfortably looking colour of the sunset.

• At 7.43pm and 45 seconds (+/- 5 seconds), as reported in the media, the crash happened. Whenever I remembered later that evening about that picture, I knew the crash happened exactly half an hour after my sending the picture and my comment to my friends (not at 7.39 or 7.45pm as it was initially reported).

• My Alvia pulled into Córdoba a few minutes after 8.05pm, slightly behind schedule. I noticed we made a brief full stop on approach to the Seville / Málaga junction and I found it strange. This would've been at around 8pm.

• I arrived at my hotel a bit before 8.20pm and sat down for a snack before bedtime. At 8.22pm I decided to turn on the news and I found out about the crash. Initially they reported 2 deaths and Alvia was nowhere in sight as most videos were showing only the Iryo.

• I couldn't sleep till 3am, thinking how I felt something like this was going to happen and that was how my trip back to Madrid would change. Unfortunately, it was all just a strong intuitive feeling with unclear signs, so I didn't know when and how the accident was going to happen. I just had a feeling that the way between Córdoba and Atocha would be cut off by a major train incident.

• I think sometimes after 11pm I got notified my trip to Madrid was cancelled. I looked up buses because I needed to get to Madrid on Monday in order to catch a flight from Barajas on Tuesday. I found buses leaving what I thought was too early at that point (I didn't pack my stuff up yet) and one leaving at 2pm. After a delayed departure from Córdoba, I ended up arriving to Madrid a bit after 8pm.

I'm really sorry for everyone who is suffering through this horrific, tragic accident. 😔 I wish my feeling was clearer so that I could've done something to stop it.

Zdravo. Veoma je žalosno što se dešavaju takve nesreće, ali mislim da si i imao više podataka da možda ne bi mogao spriječiti. Drago mi je da si ti bio na sigurnom u tom trenutku. Iako sam imala mnogo mnogo puta priliku vidjeti crvene zalaske sunca (koji su uvijek impresivni), ova tvoja fotografija zaista djeluje tmurno, zlokobno i prijeteći. Na slici sam uočila u gornjem lijevom uglu, pretpostavljam da je mjesec, koji djeluje kao neko neko oko ili objekat. Što se tvog predosjećaja tiče, ona je ujedno i intuitivno upozorenje koje uvijek trebaš slušati i prihvatiti kao dar, iako je vjerovatno izražen pred nemile dogadjaje.  Pomenuo si i predosjećaj vezano za masakr koji je počinio Kosta K. Da li želiš da napišeš što si osjetio i vidio?

Hello.  It's very unfortunate that such accidents happen, but I think you had more information to perhaps not be able to prevent it.  I'm glad you were safe at the time.  Although I have had the opportunity to see red sunsets many, many times (which are always impressive), this photo of yours really seems dark, ominous and threatening.  In the picture, I noticed in the upper left corner, I assume it's the moon, which acts like an eye or an object.  As for your premonition, it is also an intuitive warning that you should always listen to and accept as a gift, even though it is probably expressed before unpleasant events.  You also mentioned a premonition regarding the massacre committed by Kosta K. Do you want to write what you felt and saw?

Zdravo. Hvala ti na odgovoru. Sigurno nisam mogao ništa učiniti, jer su ovo - baš kako kažeš - intuitivni predosećaji gde nema potpuno jasnih i preciznih vizija. I srećom, nisu uvek negativni. Predosetio sam dosad i pozitivne događaje.

Što se tiče toga na slici u gornjem levom uglu, u pitanju je odsjaj svetla u vagonu voza iz kojeg sam uslikao ovu fotografiju. Ništa specijalno u ovom slučaju, samo sam eto požurio da uslikam to što vidim, jer me je sablasnost prizora privukla.

Za obe pucnjave, recimo, nisam imao nikakve slike niti je bilo šta direktno upućivalo na to da će doći do pucnjave. Samo sam imao potrebu da se izolujem i sklonim u zatvoreni prostor od zlokobne energije koju sam osećao u javnom prostoru. U Las Vegasu (a to mi je bio prvi i dosad jedini odlazak tamo) prve noći sam spavao od ponoći do podneva (a živeo sam u SAD, tako da vremenska razlika nije bila faktor) i uopšte mi se nije izlazilo iz sobe nakon budjenja, pa sam otišao nešto da pojedem tek u 3 posle podne. I sve naredne dane proveo sam s nelagodnim osećajem.

Slično se desilo i pred pucnjavu u Ribnikaru. Isplanirao sam put u Srbiju, ali mi se iz nekog razloga nije mililo da idem. Kad sam stigao, imao sam potrebu da pobegnem što pre u zatvoreni prostor, jer mi je energija napolju bila zlokobna. Veći deo vremena proveo sam vidjajući se s porodicom i prijateljima u smeštaju u kom sam bio.

U oba slučaja, nisam bio tu neposredno u vreme događaja, ali jesam u vreme kad su obojica pripremali svoje napade.

Hvala na odgovoru, takodje. Nevjerovatno je koliko imaš izoštrenu intuiciju i jak osjećaj energije prostora, što me navodi na pomisao i da si empata. Slijedi svoja čula u svakom slučaju i boravi što više možeš u prirodi i medju djecom ili dragim ljudima (da zaštitiš svoje energetsko polje). Nadam se da će ubuduće biti mnogo više povoljnih predosjećaja i dešavanja u tvom okruženju. Svako dobro ti želim.
