Well,

probably with current railroads, one side either means you broke axles and only one side of the wheels are on the track. Or, shattered one side of the engine block, and all of your fluids are spilling off the running boards; I would bet the best way is to wait for the assist loco to come and retrieve your train. If your engine is immobile, a crane and a flat car were probably required!!
