Are they air or vacuum operated ?
No such thing as Vacuum operated brakes on todays main line railways, they are all air.
I think that as I work over the line involved I will wait for the RAIB report and spend an evening reading through it when they publish it.
What I will say is, the driver was doing everything right within the rules for driving in snow conditions, proved by the locomotive's download from the Q-tron data recorder.
