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.

Nothing else was said..other than it was a bomb found in a suitcase and it was removed but no media was on site. I swear on my son I am not making this up.

It appears all local govt.offices would run through the tracks as well as some state.
