Just derailing a train in a long tunnel (this one is about 29km long) can take a long time to repair and that doesn't take into account what the explosions did to the walls etc.
Gotthard: World's longest rail tunnel shut for months after freight crash
I get that, but thats still not as bad as a destroyed tunnel.
Either is better than nothing, but it's not clear which it is
Edit: and if they pulled off both, such as blowing the tunnel and then having the train crash into it, well that's even better.
Update:
