I'd be more interested an explanation for the roof. Seemed to be a fairly straight forward collision on the left side but why is the roof caved in? Some mention firefighters cutting to rescue occupants but doesn't look cut to me. Curious...

Maybe, but there appears to have no damage. At on the parts that are visible...

I suspect the rescue operation involved cutting the roof open and when they brought it to the boneyard it was laid on top.
