This incident happened in the Oshawa CP Rail yard which ships out GM vehicles. One of the railcar men, who attaches and detaches the car haulers, accidentally unhooked a set of train cars without having the brakes applied. The Oshawa rail yard has a slight incline to it, so when the set of cars was unhooked from the engine, it started to roll down the hill. It smashed through the stop block, and then through the fence - continuing into the parking lot where GM stores the new vehicles that come off the line. Over 300 vehicles were damaged.
