Salah Mangoud, former director general of technical inspection and examination at the Railway Authority, said the automatic control system on the Ayat train may have been disabled either because the driver switched it off to travel at speed, or because the locomotive left the workshop with the system faulty or disconnected. He said the second possibility was more likely, given the locomotive’s age and the lack of available system components. He added that instructions, as stated by the transport minister, prohibit any locomotive from leaving before its system has been confirmed to be working. However, technical examinations conducted as part of the investigation found that the driver of Train 134 had disabled the automatic control system. The collision between the two Ayat trains left seven people dead and 125 injured.
