The unfounded idea that the rear power car was still under full power
was certainly NOT in the interim HSE report. It was an ignorant
rumour that I believe was mentioned first on Sky News a few hours
after the crash.

We had the same rumour after the Eschede crash.

Er, that was the classic unstoppable train bringing down an overbridge and
so meeting the immovable object.
