Passenger train w/250 pax stops in burning snow shed

Oups.... that was lucky, and it looks like that a modern electrical train can also burn very well, this one is a write off for sure... What type of train was it?

A double set (two four car sets) of Type 73 electric motor units (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSB_Class_73)

PS: Did I understand that passengers are critisizing the NSB for some reason, what is it that they're moaning about, even though their lives were just saved by an alert train driver?

Lack of information. Some people seemingly doesn't understand the difference between waiting at a station platform for a late train, and having just evacuated a train way up in the mountains, with the crew too busy with other things (like getting a lady in a wheel chair off the train and to safety) to run around and offer probably outdated information to passengers one by one.
