Bomb Discovered on Train Tracks? (North Carolina) VANITY-Never verified
Police Source | 10-21-04 | my favorite headache

Posted on 10/21/2004 12:52:33 PM PDT by My Favorite Headache

I am not stating this as 100% fact but apparently a bomb was discovered this afternoon on the rail tracks in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. I wouldn't post this unless I trusted the source. He is a police officer out of Orlando himself and said in confidence that it was found in a suitcase.

Has anyone heard about this locally and if so..what buildings would be of special target in that region to plant a bomb on the tracks? Is this a transportation issue or do trains run through the city past a major building?

Again...this is fresh info told to me minutes ago and it was told to me only because he got the info himself earlier today.

"Dozens of Police Standing Around Shooting the Bull"

That was Sheriff Hege's men a couple of years ago in Davidson County. Used an AR-15 to kill a bull in a pasture.

Besides, all that stuff is getting a little heady. I need to entertain my brain for the rest of the evening.

Just follow Alex. 8~)

I just got off the phone with the newsroom at WSJS 600 Am, the flagship news station for the Triad. The news director has no knowledge of there being any "bomb" incident anywhere in Winston or the surrounding areas today. If there were something to this they would have picked up on it immediately.

Sounds like a hoax.

The NC form - I experience it every day, sometimes I meet (we say "run across", but some would think that too violent of an expression) people who speak so slow, a single sentence takes two paragraphs, ie. "grits" is a two syllable word....

Sounds like a hoax? No. It sounds like a conspiracy. We need to let everyone know about this. Start faxing all your law enforcement friends in confidence and let them no that a hugh cover up is underway.

The flight crew had reported engine trouble after one of the freighter's four engines apparently fell off its wing mount.

Reported engine trouble?

Maybe it is not what is near by, but what is going to be going down the tracks. Is there a train loaded with toxic substances scheduled, an AMTRAK passenger train, a military train...just a thought

My first thought, too....I didn't even think of what might be nearby. Also, it wouldn't be unusual for cops in one state to be aware of happenings in other states...bulletins go out crossing state lines all the time. This is good....as there have been rumors from time to time of coordinated attacks across the country. Not saying this report is necessarily accurate but I wouldn't rule it out either....not by a long shot.
