When you consider the distance between the Tow truck and the Bus, the tow bar & air line must of come detached, either before or during the accident.

That does seem to be the big question. From what's been said the bus became competly detached just before they crashed into the buildings, but from what I've been told, as it's not something I know about, if the air line becomes detached from the bus or even loose the brakes should have locked ON and not failed completely.
