The frustrated passenger wrote, 'I hope @Renfe, @Inforenfe, @oscar_puente_, or whoever is responsible, provides an explanation to AVE 05721 passengers. We've been experiencing severe shaking from the Leon interchange to Oviedo. This needs urgent review for safety. I commute weekly and have never encountered such conditions before.'
