What did the train pass as it was getting dark?

Answer: a farmhouse burning in a field

Explanation:

After leaving the station in Marseilles, the sun setting in the water could be seen from the train. It was getting dark when the train passed a farmhouse that was burning. There were many cars around, as well as many people watching the burning building, while things were taken from inside the farmhouse to spread them in the field, safe from the fire.
