Default Dangers of High Speed Trains Pushed from the Rear

- There is no mention of the power setting in the interim report.

Irrelevant. We know that with the brakes applied traction power
cannot be obtained.

It is possible that the control system was deranged during the
initial impact. However in that case the rear data recorder and the
front data recorder would disagree. I imagine this would be
mentioned by the RI.

I will always explain revoked keys, unless the UK government
prevents me by using the RIP Act 2000.
