Unattended train rolled down hill.. Caused massive damage. Not following safety regulations with regards to the unattended brake was the culprit caused (in MHO) by suits who never cared about their customers anyways.

Questions regarding Lac-Mégantic rail disaster
I've read an article about the disaster and it stated that with all the locomotives shut down the air brakes could no longer hold the train as the handbrakes applied were too little. Thing is I always thought that in an air brake system the air pressure is used to release the brakes, so that in the event of a loss of pressure the brakes automatically kick in. I don't have a lot of knowledge regarding trains so please bear with me and thanks in advance.
