Holy carp! An “unmanned” train? Carrying oil?
Listening to BBC. The company president said the engineer had finished his run and parked the train on a rise...with the brake on, he says.

Yikes! It seems like they’d want someone at the controls at all times. Unreal.

I never cease to be amazed at the amount of time freight train cars spend sitting around. One would think that they are like little packets that have to be checked for their destination and then speedily sent on their way down the correct track.
Time is money.
