Being an EMD, there's some hope of re-use or repair if the fire didn't destroy the traction motors and wheel bearings and so forth. If it can't be moved, then I would expect it to be cut up where it sits, or very close to where it sits - it could be dragged a short distance if needed. Without photos or actually inspecting what's left of it, will just have to wait and see.From the few pictures I saw, I suspect it'll leave the site in pieces.

When the train gets to the Mt. Morris station (which is now Private Property), the engines uncouple from the train. The lead unit also uncouples and grabs the empties.
This one engine and the empty salt cars, head towards the mine:

The remaining engines then head to the mine:

They then couple on to the end of the train (with one engine and all the empties) and push them up the hill to the mine:
