An important find near the site of a deadly high-speed train crash in Spain could be vital in determining the cause of the disaster. Experts believe a large piece of metal discovered in the area is likely the missing bogie, an essential component for understanding the derailment.

The crash, one of the largest in Europe, occurred on Sunday night near Adamuz, resulting in at least 42 fatalities. Inaki Barron, head of the railway accident investigation body CIAF, emphasized the significance of the missing bogie. Photographs taken on Tuesday depicted the potential bogie partially submerged in a stream near the tracks.

Authorities, who have been thoroughly examining the crash site, believe that the piece flew out at high speed during the collision. Despite its significance, the metallic debris hasn't been moved from the site. The ongoing investigation continues to focus on uncovering the details surrounding the tragic event.
