Overview

• North Wales Police identified Andrew David Kenneth Young, 82, from Holyhead, as the third British national killed, with his family paying tribute to a lifelong transport enthusiast.
• Cheshire Police previously named the other British victims as Kayleigh Smith, 36, and Will Nelson, 44.
• Sixteen people died and more than 20 were injured when the Glória funicular derailed last Wednesday and one carriage struck a building.
• Portugal’s accident investigators reported the connecting cable suddenly lost balancing force, leading one cabin to reverse and the other to accelerate downhill.
• Examination of the wreckage indicated the cable snapped at its attachment point and the brakeman’s pneumatic and manual efforts did not slow the descent, with further reports expected as inquiries continue.
