Caption reads:
MMA #1 is leaving Nantes, for Montreal, after switching the MMA Remote control caboose, and shuffling some units. The locos (along with the Remote Control caboose) for MMA #2 leaving in the evening, are in the siding.
MMA #1 and #2 are the "oil trains" to the Irving refinery in St. John, so we're talking about the same trains at the same location where #2 (the eastbound train) was parked.
And, apparently, an overnight at this location is SOP.
I'm sure that parking overnight with one loco running to keep the whole train brakes on was SOP.
Too bad there was a fire in an unattended vehicle.
