tl;dr - Deconstructing locomotive with player in it put player on otherwise inaccessible island, with only way to get out being either reloading a save or using landfills.

Details:
I deconstructed the locomotive I was in, and there was water immediately south of the train track where the locomotive was parked. This caused the player to "jump" over that water and getting stranded on an island just south of that water. See here:

At this point, the only way to get off the island I could think of were to either reload a savegame, or to use landfills (which I happened to have on me).
As a test I also placed the locomotive again and tried to board it, but that didn't work (player didn't board the locomotive).

This seems to repro everytime if the locomotive is placed next to that island. Note there is exactly one tile of water between the mainland and that island. Also, I don't think it matters, but my locomotive was facing west.

The savefile (preferably before mining the locomotive, but after mining is better than no save file) would make it easier for the devs to reproduce this.

Thanks for the report. This should be fixed for 0.16.

I got a pretty similar issue when just leaving a train next to an Island, I hope this is covered, too.
