Default Dangers of High Speed Trains Pushed from the Rear

econdly, the rear power car was NOT under the full power.
The train's 'black box recorder' that the power notch was at zero and
the brake handle was in 'emergency'. It was simply the inertia of the
rear power car (which had already derailed) that kept it moving.

Do you KNOW that?

The Railway Inspectorate say so in their interim report.

prevents me by using the RIP Act 2000.
