Following the TSB investigation into the 1999 derailment, collision, and fire involving a unit train carrying flammable liquid hydrocarbons near Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Quebec (TSB report R99H0010), the Board determined that a comprehensive emergency response plan, for which roles, resources, and priorities for emergency response are defined ahead of time, would enhance the emergency response and alleviate post-accident risks. The Board recommended that:

The investigation into this accident was complex. Using data from the locomotive event recorder (LER), the rail traffic control recordings, the information gathered from the locomotives, and what remained of the tank cars, as well as the recollections of those involved, the TSB was able to piece together what happened. This information led to an understanding of how the train was secured, what role the locomotive fire played, why the train began to roll on the descending grade, and the events that followed. The derailment and subsequent failure of the tank cars, as well as the manner in which the crude oil caught fire and fuelled many other fires, is now well understood. These factors will be analyzed in this section of the report.
