Loaded Autorack Burns in Gardner MA

I love how the news says the "train" was on fire, instead of saying a "railcar" was on fire.  Also, I have read that 10, around 15, and 20 vehicles were burned!  Now THAT is getting all the details!  Not to mention the fact Pan Am hauls Fords and one other, Japanese make (which escapes me at the moment) on those trains.  I'd like to know what caused the fire... arson, "hot box", or possibly a hybrid car who's batteries caught fire.  For now, here's all we know:

Things Happen in Threes... Including Derailments!

Yes, things happen in threes.  On 2/18, Pan Am had a minor derailment in Nashua NH.  I say minor, but a main road was partially blocked and a crane had to be brought in to fix the situation.  On 2/19, the P&W had 4 loaded autoracks derail at South Main Street in Gardner MA.  RJ Corman was on scene to clean up that mess today.  And this morning I came across 5 cars derailed at Bridge Street in Westford MA, on Pan Am.  They had been removed by the afternoon.
