From what I've read, it seems like the train would block the line for a long time so they thought they could do a controlled burn and get the cars off the line quicker. Welp, that was incorrect to say the least.

doesn't make sense , controlled explosion. vs putting out the fire around the cars. Many years ago, I did design work on a barge to carry vinyl chloride. It is nasty stuff, explosive over a wide range of air/gas ratios. An explosion would have been much worse. Once the cars leaked there were no good options.
