On Greta, Bill Gertz saying there is nothing to stop trains being blown up here, there is a long tunnel somewhere near DC. Freight train could be exploded in there creating a disaster. Problem is not just in major cities but further west.

No secret there is no security on trains. Why aren't we doing anything? It's DHS job, they are aware of it, but a difficult job. Not enough people. They have sent out alerts to mass transit systems before. Someone named Mohammad ?? said plan to fire bomb between Capitol Hill and downtown in tunnel. They AQ have been planning underground bombings. US cautions they exaggerate.

Anybody could walk up to a slow moving freight train and plant a device. Cannot watch the entire rail system.
