Spain's rail infrastructure operator, ADIF, said the crash occurred on Wednesday morning in the province of Toledo. Rail services have been suspended between Madrid, Ciudad Real and Andalusia.
Spanish public broadcaster TVE reported that the accident involved two high-speed trains travelling in the same direction.
One train reportedly struck the rear of the other, causing two of its coaches to derail.
The mayor of the nearby town of Urda, Manuel Galan, told TVE that passengers had been injured and that civil protection authorities had asked the town hall to prepare a sports pavilion to accommodate passengers.
The mayor of another nearby village, Los Yebenes, Jesus Perez, told TVE that the accident appeared to be &ldquo;serious&rdquo;.
The regional president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano Garcia-Page, wrote on X that he was on his way to the crash site.
In January, 45 people died in southern Spain when a train derailed and collided with an oncoming train.
The crash was <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/world-news/video/deadly-high-speed-rail-train-crash-shocks-spain-1079982" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Spain's deadliest rail disaster</a> since a 2013 accident that killed 80 people. The January incident shook public confidence in the European country's extensive high-speed rail network.
