Indeed the stupidest fiasco yet. If I was going to create a terror incident using the train, the station is the last place I would use. I would emulate the French resistance and sabotage the rails at a bridgehead or pour sand in the wheelboxes and destroy the bearings a few miles down the road.

Great thing about trains as opposed to planes, is you can blow one up without committing suicide in the process. I guess that escaped the notice of our government einsteins, who seem to assume the terrorist is going to buy a ticket to ride when he doesn't even have to.

Who the hell is going to blow up a train, for terrorist purposes, when there is only one or two passengers on the entire train?

Right.

I remember B0 gushing about high speed rail: “...and, no pat-downs!”

I said “Just wait.”
