Does anybody have film of when they took the guard rails down and cleared the deck? That would be fun to see.

It happened long enough ago that I'd gu4ss none were electric. As I recall this was a standard cargo ship with vehicles strapped to the top deck, and the fire was caused by the vehicles shifting on a deck not meant for cargo. There have been vehicle carrier ships loaded with electric cars that have had fires, and at least one burned the ship down too.
