The 2011 report has just been published and is available to download;
http://www.raib.gov.uk/publications/annu...n_2012.cfm
Makes a change from all the "2013" titles that tend to predominate at this time of year.
As the Report states: "It is produced in accordance with the Railways (Accident Investigation and Reporting) Regulations 2005 (SI1992) and also meets the requirement of the European Railway Safety Directive (2004/49/EC)."
Gives a good overview of railway safety and risk, useful particularly from a module 1 perspective.
It is notable that the the Chief Inspector's commentary includes:
"I am concerned that in a significant number of the investigations we undertook during 2011 we identified factors that had been the subject of previous RAIB recommendations. In at least three
investigations we found that a more timely and/or thorough response to one or more previous RAIB recommendations would have had the potential to prevent the accident. In another case we concluded that the consequence of an accident would have been reduced if an earlier
recommendation had been more fully addressed."
