One thing I remember was the bride having photos taken when the blast hit.

It would be interesting to see a comparison between this blast and the other “great” ammonium nitrate explosions in history. Texas City, 1947. Halifax 1917 was NOT a ammonium nitrate explosion, nor was Black Tom 1916 but I seem to recall another Canadian blast that was.
