If you'r referring to the cars back at the siding switch, it looks like this train is making a setout or a pickup, and is not derailed. The Engineer appears to be looking into the side mirror, and not ahead. He is probably watching the Brakeman hanging onto the ladder on the rear car in the siding. If they had derailed, there should be at least one or two trainmen at the site, and soon thereafter would come a number of people.
