What a bad week.
Supposedly, about 125 high-value workers were railroaded from the aftermath of Hiroshima to Nagasaki just in time to experience it all over again.

I question the possibility of this post because I know of no railroad between the Port of Hiroshima on the island of Honshu and the Port of Nagasaki on island of Kyushu. Also, there is the disinformation idea that Nagasaki was targeted because of its Christian community. Primary target of the August 9th mission was Kokura - Army HQ and arsenal. There are a number of errors in the referenced article.
