May 8—Devices that could be used by terrorists to derail trains are being stolen from rail facilities around the country, the FBI warned today.

Boy, the FBI sure is slow passing this news along.
Uncle George told me about these 9 derail devices being stolen back on April 4, in reply #19 on this thread.

Kudos to FReeper "Uncle George"!!!
You beat the FBI and ABC News in warning us of this by more than a full month!!!

Isn’t that one of the best things about the FR? There are times, when my addiction is at its peak, I watch the national news and think “Bo-r-r-ring! I’ve read this weeks ago.” Considering my source, I thought it was wise not to post under “breaking news.”

Yes, READ IT FIRST ON F.R., as Alamo Girl would say "thanks for the heads up".
