only if it happens instantaneous.
the problem lies at point of braking for speed restriction.
If engineer realizes that brakes don't work he can dump it but two problems
what if brakes are just not as effective
or time loss of deciding to dump it have already made that train move 10 or more car lengths past where he should have started to brake.
either way the train is gone go to fast entering that restriction.

at 75 mph that train moves 110 feet per second.
