I like to think like this:

- Adam abandoned the mission, only stealing a handful of date (what he could get his hands on) and leaving it at that. No reason to blow up a single traincar, the damage they wanted to do couldn't be done to the scale they wanted it anyways, no longer worth the attention.

- Once Adam returned to WF HQ he was tasked with finding Blake and "ensuring the safety of White Fang intelligence" by any means necessary.

- Adam found Blake several months ago and handed her some fake papers and urging her to find a sanctuary that the White Fang WON'T have the resources to attempt to attack. She would be safe there.

- Adam then left with a promise to never maliciously search for her again. He would report to the White Fang that he failed to locate her and hopefully attempts will at least simmer from their.

- The next Adam/Blake encounter WON'T be a full-blown confrontation. It will be either Adam forming an uneasy alliance with Blake, Weiss, Sun and a select few others to bring down the White Fang leaders OR it will be an unintended by-product of WF and/or Beacon operations. Ozpin may send RWBY to protect an SDC traincar or, once Cinder and co. target Beacon, may send Adam there to do some scouting, this results in a stand-off in which Adam states that the slate has been wiped clean and that, by definition of not standing by him, Blake is now his enemy.
